Blades Of Grass

I should have been more grass
high maintenance 
watered from your loins
with tears

I should have stood in the front
rather than run with the pack

I should have drunk the sun
put down roots
but I was soylent green
a little red 
lots of foolish black

I may have
missed the mark
I write this for those
hit or miss
that shot  
they tried

you may never say
apology accepted
it's being a cutter

I may never apologize
after all
I was lawn.
