Sometimes I just want to get away Except I don't have the key I'm locked up and can't find the way out and everyone's given up hope on me. I used to love it here in the place Never thought I'd see the day I'd want to go But sometimes the most beautiful places Start to turn ugly and cold There used to be flowers and peace around me I too once added to the beauty of this garden But slowly...suddenly the flowers started to wilt Now all the leaves have turned brown and the ground has hardened Inside I know I'm still beautiful As do these flowers beside me They just need nurturing and kindness They require somebody to give them the love and care they need. See a flower can blossom from a seed into a beautiful object. But without love it won't forever stay that way. Eventually it will need just the right amount of love Enough to keep the petals alive and the flowers blossoming each day. For without that loving touch and nurturing that flower is just a weed Ugly, wilted and abandoned That beautiful flower would just be a seed But one day that lonesome seed will grow once more It will find beauty once again But its only with the help of sunshine and love That this garden will grow again. 8/2/07 |
