The Flower The Gardener Forgot

Spoken word with TheListNR

The Flower The Gardener Forgot

Shaken from head to toe.

Took the path from underneath my feet.

Made me lose sight of where I had to be

Why would you do this to me?

What is this happening?

How could this be?

Trapped in a box, so dark.

I cannot see.

I cannot breathe

No way I’ll make it out of here with my hands so clean

You laughed and walked away to tend to another.

My pure heart could never understand

A monster so mean... so i thought !

A sudden tingling sensation took over

A special force id never seen or felt before

Stronger than if ever been

Ooo this taste like sweet bits of heaven

I stretch tall again

All that you took away

from who I used to be

Was better for who I needed to be

... ooo this tastes like sweet adrenaline

I’m up and won’t fall again!
