Daisy

I'd rather have a daisy

And be called crazy

Than to have only sunshine

To fill this pocket of mine

Because the sunshine won't stay

It'll disappear at the end of the day

But a daisy lingers

In between my fingers

To remind me what I'm here for

If only for a little bit more

A daisy is better than the sun

It stays until it's life is done

The life of a daisy may be too quick

Burning out like a candle stick

Yet a daisy put it's life in my hand

Despite such a short lifespan

Our time was short but cherished

I'll never forget the night you perished

So thank you little daisy

For being the sun when I couldn't see
