Flower of Love
The flower I had given you many days ago
Still stands strong, so unwilted; a bud
But, yet you pass it back to me
Denying you have the same love
At least, let it flourish; a chance to grow
Please, place it there in the vase
You cannot give up, no, not this soon
Please allow just a few more days
I beg of your sweetness to help it grow
With water and love it is nourished
Please, take it back, the love I now give
So, we both can help it to flourish
