Lone Flower

In the dark, he stood

Staring at the sky, reaching one hand forth

Hoping that one day it would hold him back.

He felt lost, left, tired of whatever was going on inside him

It felt like love but at the same time, he knew it was pain.

Why couldn't he be free?

Why wouldn't his heart let him feel the love he has to feel?

Who was he?

And where exactly are his emotions?

The stars shone brightly completing the dark sky

Humming a tune, he remembers

Holding hands, screaming

Touching bonds, pain

Feeling love, hurt

His heart stung at the thought and closed his eyes

He would be lying if he said he'd want to let go

He dreads that day.

He liked someone but loved something else.

And it pained him. Day by Day

A petal would fall in the form of tears

He waited until the day he was just a stem

Standing Lone with nothing to make him beautiful again.

He waited until everyone would laugh at him.

He stood, staring at his hands.

The same ones that once loved.

Those hazel eyes that resembled the ocean

The same eyes that I'd yearn to swim in

Those eyes now turn away for someone else.

I miss you but I can't say it

Besides, I've always known you had eyes

For the other.

And yet I stayed, hoping you'd come back.

Today marks the fourteenth day of the Lone Flower

Whose last petal has dropped on the ground.

I felt cold, I felt lost, I felt empty.

I saw you leave and all I could say was...

"Goodbye to the you who made me beautiful."
