the garden in my mind

a sonnet

my mind is a twisted maze
filled with trees and flowers of all       
      colours and sizes
i usually walk around in a daydream     
       haze
but i swear to god, these plants have   
        disguises
i like the part with the roses and      
          sunflowers
and i forget about the further turns
where death seems to overpower
death riddles the bushes and ferns
as i see the petals and leaves wilting
i want nothing more then to stop the    
            journey
as my mind just keeps tilting
and i can't stop this madness without a    
            key
i like the beginning, i don't like the end
is my mind okay? sometimes i like to
        pretend
