How Beautiful I Looked...

How beautiful I looked, when he set his eyes on me,

how beautiful I looked, when I saw myself in his eyes,

how beautiful I looked, when he bent down to sniff my fragrance,

how beautiful I looked, when he plucked me out from the bunch.

How beautiful I looked, when he placed me in his living room,

I was away from my bunch, yet I was happy I was His.

How beautiful I looked, when folks passing by envied him,

how beautiful I looked till the night came,

everything was a dream and I withered away,

I realized how beautiful I looked, till he threw me away,

and looked at another flower in his beautiful garden.
