Woke up one morning
My heart beating faster than usual due to my anxiety
But then I came across this flower At that moment my heart slowed
I felt shivers flowing around my body what this flower? I asked myself merely adequate in appearance
But there's something about its appearance that makes me feel at peace
Every now and then I pass to see the flower
Seeing the flower was oddly satisfying
What's this unhealthy obsession that makes me tear up sometimes
Why am I crying? I touched my eyes to feel the tears
It's just came out involuntarily... The tears.... Oh the tears
But then it hit me I can't own the flower
It has a gardener already that takes care of it, it belongs to him
My heart starts beating faster again, I guess my anxiety is back
But I hope I find a flower that belongs to no gardener so I can take it home and water it everyday
The short poem is about a person who is obsessed with a flower, but the flower is already taken. they feel a mix of emotions from sadness to happiness when they see the flower. it's a metaphor for the narrator feelings for a girl they love it is a representation of the girl they are in love with, and the emotions they feel when they see her the gardener of the flower represents the boyfriend
