If i were a flower

If I were a flower-

I’d bloom when the time is right

If the storm picked up i’d bare the fight 

Hold beauty in the darkest night

If I were a flower-

I’d be composed as a rose 

Don't fault me watch as it grows 

As wild as a thorn

Use me for show as I mourn 

If I were a flower-

I’d be your temporary beauty

Throw me away so rudely 

Just a flower

That has no power

If I were a flower-

Well I'd be just that… 

A flower
