I find myself drawn to you
The most beautiful flower in all the garden
My thoughts linger on you even when not in your prescence
Your beauty captivates me beyond explaination
For you are not only beautiful on the outside like most other flowers
I want to pluck you and hide your beauty away from the world
For only my eyes to see
Although I know I cannot have you
Alas my thoughts linger on tasting your sweet nector
The forbidden flower is the one most desired by my heart
Desiring to have all it's beauty to myself
Yet I feel I cannot act on my hearts desire
As time passes the flower begins to wilt and die
This brings me an overwhealming sorrow
I never knew how much I cared for the flower
Until I could no longer go to the garden to admire it's beauty
With each passing day I think about the flower
And what could have been,
Had I the courage to pick the flower and savor it's beauty
Instead of letting it waste away to nothing
Each day I regret not following my hearts desire
And taking the path unknown
For now I will never know what that path could have led to
Or how the nector of that flower really tasted
I'm forever left to speculate what could have been

It is the right thing to do though
To pick up a flower and to possess it, it would die. But to leave the flower in the ground, it will have the chance to keep living as life intended. But to smile upon the flower and watering it from time to time will help it grow and blossom and smile at the sun. I liked this one alot. It made me smile. Take care Persephone.
Thank you!
