My mind has withered
My heart is tethered
Thorns replace memories
Crows replace canaries
As I grew up
I began to fear my future and my past
Monsters that I cannot see
My dark thoughts are vast
Like vines they wrap around my mind
Confined and entwined
My heart has broken
There is no key to set me free
This Garden of Eden rests and infests
My distress
For now I will repress
There memories
Till these vines digest
Whatever is left of me
