I wrote this for my English class when i was 14. It's sad, but makes you think twice! Everyday i climb higher towards the sun and spread my petals wide And people stop to admire my bright colours and breathe my sweet scent of life Then they cut me down or tear me from the ground And confine me to a pot or vase and feed me water from a can Or they pick my head from my stem and tear my petals from my heart Or they lay me in a press and suffocate me for weeks on end If only people could understand that i would much prefer to be left untouched and continue to soak up the morning sun without the fear of being loved and killed for my elaborate beauty. ------------------ ~nae ;-) IP: Logged |

Beautiful poem Nae and yes it did make me think Qoute: "If only people could understand that i would much prefer to be left untouched and continue to soak up the morning sun without the fear of being loved and killed for my elaborate beauty" Why do we always try to possess what's beautiful instead of letting it live and just be?
