Olive stem slit Xylem seeping with the thick blood of a crying wildflower The pain inside like being torn apart The shears leave the roots shrieking for their blossoms The yin to their yang snatched for their beauty her petals once colorful already seem gone replaced with the wilting blooms drowned in an ocean of the rain's tears the source of their life seen only through glass one at a time rotting inside out each petal droops jumping into the trash what have they become? murdered for their splendor yet begging to be with the likes of dirt to be home under the surface to hide and begin once more
