The Daffodil

Broken and damaged over the years

The Daffodil has yet not come to face its fears

All true beauty lies in the colour red

Can rest comfortably all in your head.

 

The Daffodil seeks a great light

To save it from its final fight.

The true image which it hides behind

Is not one that we will ever find.

 

A long lost treasure that we have found.

Which lies hundreds of miles under the ground.

The seconds which we can conceal.

We find the only the Daffodil.

 

Forget-me-knots and roses too

All the flowers that show us true.

Are nothing like the flower we will see.

The daffodil in which I believe.
