Ajax (he/xe)

People are like flowers

Some people are like flowers,

Breathtakingly beautiful

Bright colours and smiles plentiful

Others are like weeds

You want them out of your life

For all they do is cause you strife.

I’m the exception, the one inbetween

My petals have holes and brown spots,

I’m fucked up, I mean.

I’m jealous, 

Jealous of their beauty, their life, their colors

I wish I was like the others,

But I’ve never been loved, 

not even by my mother.

For who picks the broken flower?
