It was summer when our flowers started to bloom
We were the only flowers to grow in the room
But then came the weeds,
Oh those awful weeds that took you away
How could we grow when you weren't in the light of day?
So one of them grows while the other rots
The more petals I gained, the smaller the pot
But then I looked over at your pot, and it was bigger
Then I looked at the petals, they had grown
That was when I learned that I could never grow on my own
But you left me for those stupid weeds
And my flower petals fell off slowly piece by piece
I had started to give up hope
But that was when I met she and he
They were there to save my leaves
So now I don't need you
And you still try to come back to me
No more, go back to your weeds.
Once you left the first time, I learned from it, and I made peace.
