the shade of flowers/poetry by k.h.

023

i tried very hard
to make sure i left only containers, empty
and not the people i love
people were not as kind
to me.
i tried very hard
to make sure my lungs
were empty that night.

// i wrote this one a while ago, but hi, i'm back. i've been very reminiscent on my past lately. this poem feels very spiteful but it was raw at the time and i'd like to post it anyways.
