A Hideous Flower
Well I am here.
Right where you want.
Crushed right underneath your feet.
Grown wild and free,
Left unhindered,
just became the enemy.
I'm all alone.
Identified.
A standout in the garden.
A renegade.
I touch, they die.
An unintended weapon.
So I just stay.
Soak in the sun.
I persist in corruption.
Am I just one,
among hated?
Among worst of thousands?
I die alone.
Die in public.
Die to make your dreams grow.
Don't let me go.
I'm not so bad.
A flower's still a flower.
No matter how.
No matter where.
No matter the damage done.
I'm hideous.
I'm ominous.
An ugly infestation.
Wish to be wild.
Wish to be free.
Wish for my grand salvation.
