my delicate flower

I pluck one of my soft delicate petals apart

when he kisses me once again

 he swore he would only ever look at me as a friend

i pluck another off 

when she is nice, but only in pretend

I know as she speaks crippling, poisonous words about me

but it's fine,

she is my friend.

my flower is not full

it is damaged.

words didn't break my bones

they tore apart my petals and my sanity.
