If I were a flower would you, could you:
Water me in the morning?
Smell my fragrance throughout the day?
Glare at me endlessly,
Tell me how beautiful I am to you and
all that I mean to you?
Handle me delicately?
Stroke my petals gently?
Be careful not to touch my thorns or
when you do and I hurt you,
will you forgive me unconditionally?
Would you keep me in the sunlight and
when the night falls,
allow me to shine under the moonlight?
When you fall off to sleep thinking about me,
will memories of me transcend into your dreams?
When you wake, will you remember all that you
thought that I would or could ever be?
So that when my color is no longer vibrant,
my scent is no longer surreal,
the silkiness of my petals are no longer
to be seen or felt, and
my thorns no longer cause you pain,
Would you, could you, love me for who I am
If I were a flower?
