A Wilted Flower
A pretty rose is given all the praise
And fools will drool all the days
Whilst a wilted flower is disdained
And ideas by the mind ingrained.
But I, I see the truth
That blind are the youth
And wrong is given this praise
For this rose decays
But you, you wilted flower
Will be granted all the power
For hour after hour
And rain shower after shower
Will make you grow to be the strong
Which I saw all along.
Thy beauty will grow
And never will I know
What you had to undergo
But nothing will it mean
For as it was seen
As they decayed
You were remade
Your beauty outgrew the rest
And now you are the best
