no green thumb

You laid waste to your bad habits
buried them deep
but when you went to go plant your new seed
you put it in the same hole
and you did it again
and again
and maybe you're no gardener
but it cannot be an excuse to be so foolish
as to learn from your mistakes
by taking residence with them each day
until they're inside of you once more
if you really claimed to love flowers so much
then why wouldn't you let yourself become one?
