Was born to bloom

antra.coree

Was I as lovely as a flower, that you chose to pluck me?

 

But wasn't I born to bloom?

 

From being under the surface of Earth, I was hoping to come in direct contact with the air.

 

But when I did, you made me realise tranquility was beneath the surface.

 

Did beauty draw your fingers near, or the warmth I dared to show?

 

But petals wilt in selfish hands,

 

not meant to cage but see I was not made for vases,

Love,

 

I was made to bloom wild and free.
