i was stripped.
pared and peeled from the edge and below.
my skin hovered over my exposed flesh
a shadow
a dark outlook on what i once was
the night sky of my outer core.
my mind rushes open.
my heart splits in two.
my soul vapors into a horizon over my head
as i melt.
and petals.
beautiful, beautiful. petals
shine down on me, brushing whats left
a slight, slight brush
circling through the wind as they're impaled with blades of grass and peacefulness.
and i have died
