Petals

Petals

by CassieJanuary 13, 2020July 24, 2021

flower petals flutter in my chest
they flit and float
but refuse to lie still

Alone they are soft and fragile-
smooth things,
light and delightful
and easy to carry

Together, they are a frenzy-
a malestrom whirling about with scores of razor sharp rims
wrenching the air from my lungs
and bleeding the dreams from my heart
