You set me in the sun to grow, fed my roots with tender rain. But when your hands reached for me, I broke—dry petals slipping through your fingers. I now grieve the flower I almost was, longing to bloom as you once imagined. But now your care drifts elsewhere, and I remain beneath this burning sky, waiting for my final petal to fall.

Flower
You set me in the sun to grow, fed my roots with tender rain. But when your hands reached for me, I broke—dry petals slipping through your fingers. I now grieve the flower I almost was, longing to bloom as you once imagined. But now your care drifts elsewhere, and I remain beneath this burning sky, waiting for my final petal to fall.
