Spore

I might be a budding botanist. You see I watch you take root in the back of my mind, while your deepviolet dreams flower up from behind. With my withering construct and green disposition your ivy league discord leaves fetid pollution. my limbs aren't strong enough to hold you at bay so I'm prone to let grow on me whatever you say these seedlings sap strength and succor my faults i could fight back but what use against this garden gestalt i am tripping on lilacs or maybe just lies and its only a matter of time till we die so im keeping my footing my head above water and were i a fish not a lamb to the slaughter my frame it grows thin growing gaunt, growing weak and i cant help but feel this is what you would seek then i cant help but feel i was wrong, and so then i will try not to go about feeling again
