A flower oh so rare
Just one amongst a garden full
Gleaming bright like a star
Impossible to deny its pull
Caving to its beauty
Set on to find the seeds
After years of search
Heart finally found what it needs
It starts with excitement
Grows into a beautiful bloom
With lush leaves unseen
Nurtured by everything it assumes
But time of course takes its toll
Once you have it, it fades away
What once was everything in the world
Slowly becomes a far and distant sway
One missed watering
A harmless slight
Surely tomorrow
It’ll regain its might
Forgetting to nourish
Neglecting to tend
Assuming its resilience
Would never bend
But with wilted petals
It whispered goodbye
It couldn’t survive
Even though it did try
In this bittersweet garden of love
A lesson to be learnt
Just like flowers without enough care
Bonds too can be burned
