Flower Girl

We go through life thinking "Oh what if?" And about all that should have been.. Comparisons are poison, oh how it leaves me wondering; Am I not as beautiful as the flower you have picked up today? Is that because you didn't notice that flower yesterday, and I started to shy away? Am I not as kind as the Sun, who lets the Moon shine in your darkest moments?.. Am I just a sad song, the same broken record stuck on repeat? & Is that why you'd rather listen to something else more uplifting than me? We go through life, growing, and changing. I am not the same as I used to be, And everyday I'm getting closer to who I will be. So why does it bother me, if you think about me differently? Surely this life of mine is my life alone; and I'm the one in control you see.. But I'm not.. No, not really. Because I care... I care so much. I wonder who I am to you, And if I'll ever be enough I wonder about the parts you don't love about yourself And how those parts are just petals and you, the flower, you're still gorgeous regardless Tell me you'll never give up Tell me you'll reach for the stars. Cause who you are to me, Is not a secret.. Darling, you're my heart.

A bit different to my usual poems but I hope it was still relatable and somewhat pleasant to read!
