Love is a Flower
Rachel Tu
Love is like a flower
It blossoms and grows
Into a lovely rose for a while
In the fall months in withers and dies
Why is love like a flower
One the doesn’t last forever
Why couldn’t be like a tree
That lives through the cold months
I naught know enough yet
The ending is harsh
Nothing left to spare
But the hurt and pain
It’s difficult to understand how it works
A flower is pretty
All pink, purples, blues, and reds
Like a field of wild flowers before the winter
Nothing lasts forever though
As fall comes they turn brown and fade away
Nothing to save
Same with love
It comes to it’s highest point
It’s as if the world is perfect until the fall comes
Everything falls apart
Till nothing stands tall
Like a fire in a forest
Winter is the hardest months to face
The cold left nothing behind to hold
Just the cold air surrounds your heart
And doesn’t let go
Don’t let the cold take you away
Don’t you lose your perfect petals
I can’t catch them and save them from the end
Just remember who you were before you change your mind
I’ll always remember what we had
With all the love and pain I can’t forget
