cw: mental health

 

i wake up and get ready eat breakfast with michelle, start doomscrolling then get a message from ivey to cook we shop for ingredients and make okonomiyaki i get home covered in flowers when i try to pull out the flowers, more grow in their place the room grows into a wild garden i ignore the flowers and cook, sweep, shower, and go to sleep wake up from the bed of roses full of thorns and go about my day weeds are still flowers that need to be watered
