I’m a little flower Being seared by the sun My petals are now wilting My life is almost done I’m a little flower My colors are fading fast I’m parched to the core And yet you move on passed You water other flowers Little sprinkles you give me While I struggle to hold on My beauty for you to see I’m a little flower That you once called divine Now you have lost interest I’m no longer glorious...fine I’m a little flower You’ve neglected for a while But I’m still struggling on Longing to see your smile… I’m a little flower This is my final plea Remember my first bloom Promise to revive me Oh, water me, my love My petals now caress I’ll open as before unfurled by tenderness Eileen Manassian Ghali

Lucky one! Wonderfully written with deep feelings craving to be reciprocated. You may be a little flower, dear Eileen, but do not forget that little flowers are beautifying the world!
