Flowers crawl under their jagged fingernails Addicts rushing to the next fix Ignoring the death that surrounds them Ignoring the hurt and the pain Ignoring that most of the time they **** instead of save Within themselves they dismiss the decay that rests in wrinkles and eyes as fifteen becomes fifty becomes an obsession with an known end point Something completely fixed but strangely floating in flux between what they feel and what they don't want to feel

An Observation
Flowers crawl under their jagged fingernails Addicts rushing to the next fix Ignoring the death that surrounds them Ignoring the hurt and the pain Ignoring that most of the time they **** instead of save Within themselves they dismiss the decay that rests in wrinkles and eyes as fifteen becomes fifty becomes an obsession with an known end point Something completely fixed but strangely floating in flux between what they feel and what they don't want to feel
