Check My poem Thanks!!!!!

~Peculiarish~
Petals fall
One by one
Into blood
Watch as they stain
Am I insane?
My heart is breaking
The earth is shaking
Is it possible to bake a pie without actually making it?
I’m faking…
Canines eagerly wait in line
Famished to death
They’ve surely passed every test
That was just a quick guess…
Lovely bride with kinky curls
Adorn with pink pearls
Staring at a door
Waiting for her groom
She’s sure he will be there soon
Until the morning fades too afternoon…

I will be here
Like a hermit crab
Timid in my shell
Hoping that no one will be able to tell
That ocean has faded away
now only salt remains…
