Weeds
Won't somebody show me
Where the flowers are at?
Because all I see
Right in front of me
Are nothing more
Than wilting weeds
Who evoke a sense of sadism
From choking out every growing fruit
Blossoming like a flower
As the farmer mistakes the fruit
For the deceptive weeds
That do everything in their power
To choke out each and every fruit
Leaving the children to starve to death
In the process
The fields, to my eyes
Are filled with thorns,
And I refuse to eat them yet
I know I have no choice
For weeds are what's in harvest
And although I taste blood in my mouth,
At least I'm alive, so I shouldn't be complaining
Although my teeth are crying out
For help, as they are choked by the thorns,
At least I'm being sustained by the thorns
And at least my blood has enough life
To sustain me,
So, I should be happy, because
At least, thank God, I'm still alive
But everytime I eat those fucking thorns
I wish for Death to nurse me in my
Time of trouble
For Death is the only parent I have
That'll nurse me with the milk I need
And Life is a negligent mom,
Who slams violently the car door,
Never to return again
So if God would grant this favor,
For I know not the taste of pleasing fruit
And allow me to stop, take a break,
And smell the roses,
Perhaps eating these thorns from
This fucked up barren field, would
Be much more bearable
For if I can't stop to smell
The beautiful aroma of the roses,
I might as well roll myself up
Into a ball, and roll into the field,
Where the thorns could finally grant my wish,
And choke me to a lifeless pulp.
