White Flower

You were once so innocent

I could barely get enough

You were so young, cuteness evident

But why has it gotten this rough?

I loved you like any brother would

I gave you what I have

Yet you treat me like a stranger at times

And never gave me back my love.

Why do you hate me so?

I know that I failed your expectations

I admit I wasn't the best

But I still cared for you nonetheless.

From a lovely white flower with scent oh so sweet

Why have you become like these?

I never did anything to earn such hate

But I'm sorry.... forgive me please...

You have everything! Our parents and their love

What more can you take away from me?

I wonder what's going on inside your head

But don't think of me I'm as good as dead.

I've missed the times we'd laughed and played

But as time goes by, you and I have strayed

Why would such a flower who was once so bright

Be so conceited, with eyes that burn when I'm in sight.

Sometimes I wonder if you still care

even at times I thought you were bi-polar

With all their love, they have you spoiled

While I earn them by the work I toiled.

But please, sweet white flower, I have enough

Enough with the senseless fighting, bickering

It's time for you to bloom and face up

Knowing your brother is still here, still caring...
