I love collecting past lovers flowers, letting them dry, and watch the color fade
I remember Zach placed the corsage on my hand
I saved that one for a year
Amir brought me roses the first time we went out
He left me in the car outside of Kroger to pick them up and I pretended I didn't know
I saved those for three years
I still have Andrew's.
You see I fall into these episodes where I feel the worst pain
It's easy to get distracted by life and forget who you are and where you came from
I used to have it engraved on both my hands
Now only deep wounds are left on my heart.
When the world gets quiet or when too much enters my life, I go back to find her
I lay in bed crying for hours
Not all of us come from the land of sunshines and rainbows
My land was filled with tears
I sometimes wonder if I've used my lifetime supply of tears
or if I will soon.

Very emotive write pg, I am sure that your tears will stop flowing when the right person comes into you life and brings you flowers every day.
Welcome to MPS.
no my dear, the morose reality of humanity is we're made more of water/moisture than any other singular element, so cry yourself to that land of momentary peace, as many times as it takes: just remember, to leave it all on your pillow, wash it clean and puff it back-up - ready, for what's sure to come next...

I like the poetic flow in these lines
