Day 3: "Hanahaki" by Julia McKinney

Updated: Dec 7, 2023



Hanahaki


When we first met

Flowers grew in my lungs

I tried to speak

But only petals left my mouth

Sometimes things are better left unsaid

The sweet scent intoxicated me

But I was blinded by what I couldn’t see

What we called love was a mystery

Because if it was love

Then why couldn't I speak?

Julia McKinney, sophomore
