weedkillers

at that tender age when one still believed
openly bleeding wounds make for devotion
cut skin, draw blood, covenanting together
all through the years of getting to know you
always being the only one to be weeded out

    Herbicides! Just kidding. Love the title.

    I like how you see yourself as a weed, as if you accept the fact that you are undesirable or unimportant. Still you persist and see the pain you willingly tolerate as something lovely and worthy of being praised. But at the end, you are still not enough to be chosen.

    Good job and thanks for sharing.
