Flower

Folder: 
General Love

A flower stands unopened,

Beauty hidden from the world.

She is simply awaiting her gardener

But he never arrives.



So this delicate flower sits dormant

Coated in a thin film of dew

That is slowly slipping into her petals

As her colors begin to fade.

She still patiently waits for her farmer,

The one who will revive her.



She just needs some tender loving care

So that her true beauty can be unearthed

But soon she has no other choice

But to wither up from lack of love.

What a travesty when

Beauty dies before it ever lives.

This is such a sad poem, but one that I enjoyed reading very much. Nice work. :)
