I feel like a spring flower.
New, and open to the world.
The sun shines down upon me,
And I glow.
Then comes along a careless young boy
And picks me – ripping me from my home.
Lost interest, he tosses me over his shoulder.
Without a second thought. Not a glance back.
My beauty shrivels in the sun,
Left to bake and die.
Without the world to see
Who I really am inside.
And that easily,
I am quickly forgotten from this world…
