She is beautiful
Like a tulip in a garden
If you water her
She will grow from bud to blossom
If you nurture her
She will let out a scent
That is both characteristic of her
And distinctly sweet
If you pluck it
Only to put her in a vase
She will still make you feel special
As she bleeds in the water
Like a tulip in a garden
If you water her
She will grow from bud to blossom
If you nurture her
She will let out a scent
That is both characteristic of her
And distinctly sweet
If you pluck it
Only to put her in a vase
She will still make you feel special
As she bleeds in the water
I had a friend who used to cut himself out of guilt. But, what it does is enhance the cycle of feeling guilty. You cut out of guilt, but feel guilty that you cut because you shouldn't like it. But, it feels "so good." I understand why people feel so bad, but cutting is never the answer. Neither is heartbreak an excuse for it.
