Well, if you find the bird buried in the garden, you now know where it came from?
i suppose.
...i'm glad they liked the hibiscus.

i’m sorry.
i’ve done a terrible thing i’m so sorry. i didn’t know. how could i have known ? i thought the hibiscus withered under my touch from the lack of knowledge. i killed it. i have it dried and pressed between the pages of my sketchbook. they are dead. but i loved them. you have the understand that i loved them.
i’m sorry.
there was a bird drinking from the puddle in your garden. it was just… so still. like a statue. like a dead thing, it just stood there. it didn’t even react to me. you have to understand…
i’ve done a terrible thing. i didn’t know. i’m sorry. i just wanted some company. how could i have known ? it was so still like a dead statue thing and it barely made a sound when i reached out out and grabbed it.
it’s so cold in here. i’m so sorry. do you know what i did to the bird ?
guess.
...i see.

i don't think there'll be an afterlife for me.

This sinking ship, all rusted brown
It leans for land
Desperate not to drown
So write your book
Though it gets wet
The page is booked
The letters bled
Oh, how these ▇▇ will come an d go
But there's just one that’s close enough to dry this ▇▇
And oh, that sun will come and go
And when it's gone it darkens everything we know
And oh, ▇▇▇▇
When you get ▇▇
I hope your heart's still light enough for you to float
There's still cobwebs in the corners
And the backyard's full of bones
Won't you stay with me, my darling
When this house don't feel like home?
When this house don't feel like home
Oh ashes, ashes, dust to dust
The devil's after both of us
Oh, lay my curses out to rest
Make a mercy out of me
This tired old machine is a-rumbling
Singing songs to the secrets behind my eye
All my aching bones are trembling
And I may yet fall apart
Won't you stay with me, my darling
When the war starts in my heart?
Oh ashes, ashes, dust to dust
When the war starts in my heart
Oh, ashes, ashes, dust to dust
The devil's after both of us
Oh, lay my curses out to rest
Make a mercy out of me
Oh, ashes, ashes, dust to dust
Tell me I am good enough
Ooh, lay my curses out to rest
Make a mercy out of

my entire garden reeks of basil.
the scent of the mint is no longer keeping it out. it is spreading, overruning my garden. the azaleas are wilting, the cold plastic of my hands never gentle enough to soothe their fragile leaves.
the oleanders have started blooming. they're a striking white, a piercing and perfect ivory. i try to caress the petals, but i don't have enough control over my hands and the dainty little blossoms fall to the ground, dead.
i have killed my sunflowers. a string was tugged and i knocked them over.
i accidentally stepped on my strawberries. i stumbled after my foot cracked after stepping on something sharp.
my irises never germinated. i must have overwatered them.
everything is browning at the edges.
my entire garden reeks of basil.

i believe that if i had only opened my eyes sooner, maybe cecil and i wouldn't be enemies.
we were torn apart because i was confused. i was lost. i was confused and lost and terrified and i was grasping at anything and everything that gave me even a hint of familiarity, and that was blind obedience. i could not see past myself. i was selfish.
and i apologize for that.
we were companions at one point, i remember. we were friends.
i suppose i know what it means now.
i'm sorry, cecil. this doesn't mean we're friends, and this doesn't mean i like you.
i'm just sorry that i never had the chance to mourn you.
i left some hibiscus on the counter. feel free to take as much as you'd like.

certainly more than you are.
i don't even know what you are. how did you mess up life so badly that the afterlife rejected you and stuck you in a mirror for all of eternity? it's almost hilarious. imagine how alone you'll be in a few years time when all of us wither away and die. imagine that, forever. hahaha. i'd laugh if i had humor.
how in the world are you getting into my garden? how do you have enough life force reserved for this? the honeysuckle was for tad's tea. this is immature.
stop it. stop it now. if the stinging nettle won't keep you out then what will?
was i supposed to stay confined to this mirror in your bathroom ? don’t get your strings in a twist, friend. you can’t keep me out. tad is used to a bitter taste in their mouth, i’m sure. he’ll be fine without his honeysuckle. well. my honeysuckle now.
indulgence is fun. you should try it some time.
