Do you love me? Or do you not? My stem was ready for your touch, my delicate roots placed firmly in the clay. I begged you to notice me, to pick me and to pluck me in this sea of vibrant flowers. But, I was never beautiful enough to be part of your bouquet. I wondered and then pondered: Does he love me? Does he love me not? And I plucked and plucked and plucked my petals, Until there was nothing left of me. Now I'm here all alone in a field full of thriving others, Wilting. Withering. Wasting away.
