To My Flower

To My flower

I think of thee often

All throughout each day

I imagine you closed before me

A bud full of promise

Unaccessable but beautiful

And bursting with potential

I want to softly kiss that bud

And cause you to bloom before me

I wish to behold you unfurled

I desire to stroke your petals

And feel it's velvety texture

Your scent must be so sweet

Your colors so vibrant

You would fill me with delight

And wonder at your perfection

Alas barriers make this moment

Far from this day

But whatever our life may hold

I wish you to be my flower

Forever
