sow or forgo
I feel my roots growing deeper and deeper,

The one thing I thought I always wanted.

It's suffocating, please, I need a breather.

I thought they'd be safe and vaunted.


I want to cut myself free

Split myself in half

Two whole versions of me

Their incompatibility gives me a bitter laugh


One wants to stay

and reap the life she'll sow

the other longs to run away

this blessed life she'll forgo


She has a fantasy

that satiates all her needs

can't keep her mind on anything else, like Percy.

she's started to plant the seeds
