She covers her scars with ink filled flowers.
Patches of tiny weeds growing through the cracks of her body.
She hopes to one day be covered so society doesn't see her past mistakes.
Her mother always told her that the best art appeared through
disaster and heartbreak.
Fast forward 60 years and her mother was right.
She's the artwork her mother always said she would be.
She finally
Ever bloomed.

As the rain begins to fall,
it marks the beginning of her sobbing.
Crying out to beg us to stop harming her.
After every lightening flash is a pause.
Almost like she is gasping for air within her crying.
Then hits the thunder.
Her screams.
Her anger filled outcry.

Regret is all I feel towards you.
No longer sadness nor anger.
Just regret.
I regret that I threw my whole soul into you.
Regret that I mourned over the loss of you.
What I regret the most is,
loving you.
Love is supposed to be warm and face aches due to smiling too hard.
Instead,
all it was, was a guessing game.
True or False.
Today or Never.
The only feeling I have towards you is
Regret

I am a fragile shard of glass.
Rigid on all sides.
Ready to hurt what comes next.
But, what you haven't seen is me at my full masterpiece.
Fully pieced together and showing the beauty of the world.
Someone broke me, though.
Shattered me.
Now,
I am just a fragile shard of glass.
Ready to scar what first scarred me.

For I am withering away
and
nobody notices.
My brain is crippling like a decaying flower.
I no longer wish to progress in the disappointment I've been told
I am.
I will finish what I started,
For I am withering away.

— The End —
