This piece is inspired by a painting I received from my favorite artist. The painting was of a woman, from the neck up, with big blue eyes and an eye protruding from her neck...
She may sitting in a corner crying
Tears flowing down each cheek from flashbacks relived

They hover over her colored petals filled with delectable delight
