Coughing Up Flowers- An OC story

Coughing up flowers

Coughing up flowers 🌸

Pulling back from the toilet bowl Luce wipes the black blood dripping from his mouth, the pain in his chest is getting worse. After his breathing calms down and he washes his mouth out with water, he peaks into the toilet bowl. His hands begin to shake and tears spill from his eyes, what he sees is Black rose petals that had came from his lungs. Luce wipes the tears that are falling and sniffles, he flushes the evidence.

The next day Luce can't breathe as well as he use too, the flowers filling his lungs are making it rather difficult and too add one to it he can't stop coughing up petals. Each time he coughs it's either 1 or 10 petals. Luce can't believe how fast this is effecting him, the one sided love he feels is more painful than stupid flowers growing from the inside. Maybe it's because the person he's in love with is already in love with someone else, so it's speeding up the illness. Luce could get a surgery to get them removed, but then never love anyone again. Since the surgery takes away that feeling, so you don't get the illness again. Luce wipes the tears coming from his eyes with the sleeve of his hoodie, sighing he begins to cough again. The familiar feeling of petals raising up in his throat, once his mouth is open black blood and along with black petals spill from his mouth. He catches each delicate petal with his cold hands and he begins to cry out, maybe for help or maybe for the pain he feels.
This one sided love is going to kill him and Luce seems to be okay with that. He'd rather see his Lover happy than suffering by staying by his side. Just thinking about more petals spill from his lungs, causing Luce to go out of breath. He lays on his back, feeling the vines run up his throat and the thorns cutting into him. The flowers have out grown his lungs and they are finally fully blooming from his throat out of his mouth, this is how the illness kills you. Luce closes his eyes, letting death take him. But yet this death is rather beautiful, yet tragically sad. A one sided love death, that makes flowers grow in your lungs. Leaving you literally breathless. Luce takes one last breath as it is his last, his mouth his pried open by the black roses coming out of his mouth.  Leaving Luce breathless, out of time and loving only one. The black roses begin to grow around his body, making almost a bed underneath him. Such a sad beautiful death, a one sided love.
