Disappeared...

So cold and epmty So putrid and dark Rotting away from sin As your broken limbs fall off one by one Your petals wont stay up anymore They just keep falling to the floor Your roots that were once so strong Are cracked and brittle You cannot nourish yourself from God's earth anymore As you shrink into the ground You can't be called a home either Since all you do now is wither away Once you were so full of vibrant colors Now leaves you with nothing I don't know where it all went The storms came And off you were sent You couldnt handle the storms anymore Your life was being filled with turbulence You needed to get away from the thing that was taking your life... When the only thing you were really doing was... Embracing it!
