How Can You Wear Flowers

How can you wear flowers and act so cold? How can you spread joy and not take away the pain? How can you act like a superstar, but bring the enemy to my door? I ask you how can you lift me up and then destroy. Bring me to the place where I am real. Bring me to the place where you can't steal. I'm believing in you and how you are. I'm caring for you and hoping you won't walk away. So I ask again how can you wear flowers and be so cold inside. How can you break my heart and not leave me here to die.

I love the flow and I like the title, so suiting. I can feel the ache in your words, very beautiful. Xx
