One rose,
one weed-
but together
they grow
in the same
garden-
they share
vast space
but still fight
over the
water
that falsely showers
them both,
though to their
dismay-
the weed died
and the rose
blew away.

Feel
Sand beneath your feet
You walk but do not see
Hide between the trees
Feeling nothing but the cool breeze

Silence Kills
I don't want to know me,
I don't want to make a sound.
Let's pretend I've stopped existing
and start breaking ground.
You can dig this hole for me,
even though I'm nowhere to be found.
You are the only one who can finish this,
though I'll never admit you were the only one keeping me around.
I don't want to hurt you anymore,
so go ahead and put me to rest.
Let's bury my body
and put denial to the test.
Who is this girl you knew?
Where is she?
She drowned on her own words
and now you're free.
Look me in the eye
as you lower me down.
I'll never stop being the one
who let you drown.
Forget me
for I'll not make a sound.

Why do I care when she doesn't talk to me?
Why do I care when she doesn't talk to me? It's not like it matters, it's not like it's hurting me...
Well, no, maybe that isn't true. It is hurting me. Why does it hurt me? It shouldn't matter that she isn't talking to me. It's not a big deal. It's not like she's ignoring me...
What if she's ignoring me? Is she ignoring me? She tells me she's busy. I believe her I really do, but there's always this part of me that tells me I'm just annoying. Why would someone want to talk to me? I'm not good enough...
I'm never good enough. I push myself, put so much pressure on myself. People tell me I'm good at things, but I can't see it. I can't belie

Three lines I'd consider revising because the flow is broken in them
endless space (vast space)?
but still fight (still fight)?
but still fight (still fight)?
that falsely showers (don't know how to revise this one, my apologies!)
It has to do with the syllables, I think. The poem comes off as choppy to me but really worked! It kind of reminded me of chopping off the plants in the garden. Im sure theres something symbolic in those lines, and I'll come back to figure out what that means.
Anyways, if you disagree, feel free to do so.
