Toxic Garden

Ive got a toxic garden
Growing in my backyard
All my flowers made of poison,
But friendship calls down my guard.
To lay asleep in a patch of daises
Awaken to petals dripping cyanide
Its like they plot to kill me
Behind their lures they hide.
They grow too tall, I think,
I drown in the bragging weeds
I give them more than plenty
But still they cry of needs.
I dare not sleep now,
Vines around my neck creeping
A slow strangle-me-silent
So they wont hear me weeping
For the flowers they could have been
The roses they were inside
I told them every day they were,
But didn't listen or thought I lied.
I need not have passed under
To feed their grassy bed
If they had accepted what they were,
Now I would not be dead.
