A Cactus Ever So Lonely

I see, this is what it means,
To have one intention, and one only.
Why is it I have to be that one cactus,
That feels ever so lonely.
The hard rocks to the pavement so hot, 
Do I care?
No I most certainly do not.
For I have these friends, seemingly different.
But who cares?
For their petals drip such vibrant colors, 
And their love they leant. 
I sit here, pointy and uneasy to touch, 
But the soft heart of those flowers die down such a thought.
Now, I don't have to feel like an only,
Neither do I have to be that cactus, that is ever so lonely.
