Entice the Soul

Bouquet of Flowers

Bouquet of Flowers

May I compare you to a bouquet of flowers?

A red camellia you were, a bright red flame in my heart,

I thought you were my primrose, that I could not live without,

But I was only the board that you would use to throw your dart,

More like a marigold, only causing cruelty and grief beyond doubt,

You promised me you were a freesia, someone I could trust,

I always felt forsythia every time I caught a glimpse of you,

But now you’ve betrayed me and treated me like a piece of rust,

That anticipation is now gone, and when I see you I only feel blue,

You called me a calla lily, a beauty is what you said,

To you I was only a nasturtium and with orange mock I was caught,

I didn’t realise I was getting a hyacinth, either pink or red,

Instead I should have been a begonia, beware of the lesson that you taught.

You plead for forgiveness like a purple hyacinth wanting a second chance,

But this time I’m a striped carnation and I will not break my stance.
