Vines crawl out of the cuts on my arm Stretching up to the sky, My brain's blaring with alarm A piece of me wants you to pry As I frantically cover my upper arm. I choke out sunflower petals Swallowing them down and pushing them back Waiting and waiting as the panic settles I can't make it through another anxiety attack The petals of the flowers you gave me Are still in my heart I fear I'm losing my sanity The memory of happiness is far and torn apart The room through my tears is blurry. Rose thorns scratch and tug at my skin, Blood drips down onto my notebook The melancholy air of midnight starts to set in I'm almost too scared nowadays to look.

Petal
Vines crawl out of the cuts on my arm Stretching up to the sky, My brain's blaring with alarm A piece of me wants you to pry As I frantically cover my upper arm. I choke out sunflower petals Swallowing them down and pushing them back Waiting and waiting as the panic settles I can't make it through another anxiety attack The petals of the flowers you gave me Are still in my heart I fear I'm losing my sanity The memory of happiness is far and torn apart The room through my tears is blurry. Rose thorns scratch and tug at my skin, Blood drips down onto my notebook The melancholy air of midnight starts to set in I'm almost too scared nowadays to look.
