It’s a Trap

A poem for you, Empath

There once was a storm First it brought sweet water And filled the soul of the wildflower

The wildflower danced again Sang again And dreamed again

Her dances so beautiful Her revelries so mellifluous Her dreams so vibrant

The storm grew comfortable And poured out it’s burdens on the wildflower

But the wildflower’s roots were deep So the storm poured harder

Slowly the wildflower’s petals dulled Her stem shrugged And her roots grew loose

The wildflower cowered in the dirt to escape the storm Unsure where the rain ended and where her tears began

The storm whaled mercilessly with raging fury and filled the flower’s once wild soul

With acid
