Story of My Life

The story of my life, empty, a vase filled with wilted flowers; leaving a trail passing by slowly like a swollen snail; extracted, drawn firmly upon my face. Echoes of age with such depth of your love written within dreams, a-dream built on bricks I've been clinging on so tight as time ticks; all lie with crowns of stones, leaves clinch above. Once, the story of my life with grand sprays of bloom, now taken by wind through a maze. 9/28/2019
