Poppy
You were like a poppy flower. Your toxic heart was disguised by beauty. I was utterly captivated. Despite all the warnings, I only saw the good in you. Funny how much an infatuation for someone can cloud your logic and reason. I was like a flower too; petal after petal fell every time you broke my heart. Yet I persisted, so sure and determined to prove you weren't who everyone said you were. Boy, was I wrong. Your poison flowed through my veins straight to my heart, destroying me from the inside ultimately leaving me as nothing more than a stem; a vestige of who I once was.

Random Thoughts
I keep needing to remind myself to talk to people. I don’t do it enough because I’m always somewhere else. My own place and I don’t let others in. It’s not on purpose it’s just that I don’t leave. I can’t find the ones to share with, or don’t. I’m too distracted by what’s there, in the place. I like it too much. Not the superficial or quick reward, but that of great thought. It would be great to show them. They can’t see it now, it must be perfect. If they peer through my window I shall cover it in ambiguity. Not yet, maybe later, when it’s ready. The prison is comfortable and my vision is not clear. The world is great and yet the window is better. The cloud filled eyes on my head wander like the thoughts of mine. They rest on others, or really a thought through the window. Eye contact is lost when they see me, but I don’t see them. Their world is great, the journey there is hard and yet the window is bitter. My head will eternally rest on the sleepless dreams that light my room of dark thought.
