Such beauty from such youth. I see you there in the midst of the field of the park, dancing and playing  as if nothing bad could ever happen. Little do you know your freedom shall soon be snatched away in one quick swipe. No longer will you have the ability to breathe the fresh air you've grown up knowing. Just a few hours from this second you will be jammed into a space along with a half a dozen others just like you. Maybe from different areas of other parks, even a few from their own houses, but all just as pretty. There's something special about you though. Something in the way you reach toward the sky while you move that makes me just not able to walk away. Maybe I'll give you a special place or maybe I'll give you to a girl I know. She always loves the slender ones like you. Don't worry she'll treat you well. Give you what you need to survive right up until that day you die. I've never been very good at remembering to feed and care for the ones I've kept. Sometimes if there's something really special about them I'll give them extra care but  that only lasts until I find a new one. A new beauty to bring home and make mine. A new one that looks like no other I've seen before. One like you. You're perfect. All alone, no one else watching. You're mine. You're the newest addition to my collection. Hush now and be at peace for soon you shall be among those who know how you feel. Others who have been plucked from what they know. Picked to make a complete strangers house a home. You will mean nothing to me, you probably won't even make it to the weekend. I guess that's just the chance I have to take when I choose you to be the next flower for my bouquet.
