The Flowers
When my body begins to rot
Once my soul has been freed
After my cracked mind is finally gone
I hope to join the flowers
While my flesh begins to deteriorate
My eyes lose their light
Bones become brittle
I hope to join the flowers
As soon as my heart stops beating
My brain loses its spark
And my lungs lose their air
I hope to join the flowers
Behind my childhood home
My cold body lies
Being consumed by the luscious life
that once filled me with love
I join the flowers
