Untitled

by Blissfulnobody

I have gone cold turkey On many a vice and addictions, Wasn't nearly there, When it came to you, You -a newly seeded dandelion, In my beautiful garden, Pulled you out cleanly, From root to tip, Far away from flowering, You didn't even look pretty, Once a part of a  beauty, Swayed fuzzy and whispy, Got kicked and treaded over, Scattered fragments, Waiting to seed again, Pretty on the outside, Trouble for the gardener, Didn't even use my rage, Just calmly uprooted you, So you wouldn't flower, Won't scatter anymore, Spread like a weed again, But who knows, Weeds are resilient, Maybe you'll flower, In someone else's garden, Blossom and bloom, Just to be kicked again, Always loved a dandelion, Pretty in the hands, Prettier when scattered, So I won't hold you again.
