The Flower
THE FLOWER
Where are you now?  Where have you gone?
Why did you leave me here on my own?
Your heart was my ocean,  your whispers my wind.
Your arms were my strength that held me within.
I gave you a rainbow with its pot of gold.
I filled it with all the love that it could hold.
I sent you the sunshine to follow the rain.
I gave you the courage to start over again.
Yet from yesterday's rose your heart had been torn
And my love was burned because of her thorn.
It's not hard to imagine the love you have lost
One hurt your pride but I paid the cost.
In this garden of life born from its seeds
Lies a beautiful flower amongst the weeds.
Blind is the coward who will not see
That beyond his own shadow ~ The Flower is Me!
I've had my share of weeds thru the years.
I've grown to be strong from all of my tears.
I've faced each new day, skies cloudy or clear.
I've blossomed above from all of my fears.
My life had new meaning when I saw you.
You sparkled like gold from the morning dew.
You glowed like the moon.  You shined like the sun.
One look and I knew that you were the one.
But then time came to pass.    No longer to be.
You needed your space.   You longed to be free.
No words of goodbyes, my tear drops to fall.
You've left me alone here with nothing at all.
Blind is the coward who will not see.
That beyond his own shadow.
The Flower is Me!
