Flowers have eyes
And they blink up at me
The trees have eyes
So many it's scary
The animals have eyes
More than just two
We have eyes
More than just a few

"Eyes; they can see everything, even if we can't see them."

A flower I picked

I pick a flower
And it screams
It pierces my ears
And makes them bleed

"Nature is always too quiet for us to hear."

Motivation

I look up at the ceiling
Pondering what I'm feeling
I want to take a picture
I want to play a song
I want to paint a picture
I want to dance along
But I look back to the ground
And I'm always somewhere else

"Motivation always hits me at the wrong time."
I'll literally be sitting in class and suddenly have the urge to pick up my violin that's not even with me. It's the boredom in life.

It isn't

I laugh
Because it's funny
No, it isn't
Because I'm bleeding

"I'm laughing, I'm crying, it feels like I'm dying" - Melanie Martinez; Pity Party

Thinking ahead

I look to the future
And there I see a picture
It might be all in my head
But there's only death

"The death of what?"
I always worry about what's going to happen in the future and always expect the worst to come of it. This poem is a bit exaggerated; "dread" can work instead of "death"

What to do

You didn't think it through,
Did you?
Now you're lost,
Because you don't know what to do

"Impulsiveness."

Rain

Rain, it comes on down
it washes the ground
it leaves behind an earthy smell
and soothing sounds

"The approach of dark, ominous clouds are something I look forward to sometimes."
