I fear “flowers”

They told me “be like the flower”

Who hide pain with a smile

But I don’t wanna be

As my soul is tired

Of these crumpled ideas

No one cares & no one did

When this stubborn heart

Was caught in the riptide

 

Everyone has a story to tell

So do I; titled “The color of love”

It was me in the picture rim

And the stranger I welcomed in my heart

Who made me feel like a flower

And did all the sweetest sin

I gave him my all and he told me some praise

“You are the ink in my pen, the line on my paper”

 

Next morning when I turned around

In the bed we made

It was just me, but you were no where

To be found

Now I’m just a prisoner of memories

Whom even the weakest waves can break

If only music can ease away all the pain

Of your cruel silent goodbye

 

They told me be like the flower

but how to tell them all my petals

are withered;

I can’t be anymore as even my

Soul is tired.
