Deep Roots
Running to the woods
Because I have no where else to go
Ever since this virus infected me I’ve felt drawn to the nature of the trees
Feeling the dirt on my feet
Feeling the stillness in the air
_It won’t stop _
_It won’t stop _
Roots growing through my skin where my veins used to be
Leaves picking through my scars
Soon I’ll lose feeling in all my fingers and toes
_The roots won’t stop growing _
_Please they just keep going _
This sickness running through my blood like a current I can’t stop
Dragging me in with its waves crashing over me
Flares hitting me every time it starts to calm down
_But it won’t _
_It won’t calm down _
Why am I the only one suffering from this curse of a sickness
Why am I the only one?
No one can find the cure
No one can stop this pain rushing through me every time a new symptom arises
_Help _
_Please I just want help _

I’ve never done anything like this but I thought I would try it out. I got inspired by a book I just finished so I got the ideas from that. Anyways I had fun trying something new! I would love your thoughts on it!
