Flowers

The weirdest of dreams are the best inspiration.

I see flowers,
Growing all around me.
Taller than the trees.
The petals become razor sharp
And fly off the stems.
They attack me.
I try to shield myself,
But I fail.
I lay bleeding amongst the stained petals.

Author's Note

This was something I wrote as part of my advanced creative writing final back in 2014. This one in particular was inspired by a really strange dream I had.
