With Eyes That Never Look Away

I am merely just a sprouting, weed

Staring at the radiance of that beautiful bud

And I am nothing compared to that beauty,

I stand here bending about in the cold wet mud

I am just another growing little weed,

I can never be as outstanding as that bud

And look at my shameful dirty colors,

And the seed spouts out colors of light orange and red blood

Can't stand the look of that Rose

Standing proud in the bright moonlight

Seeking attention and swaying with grace

What is need for a tiny weed in this beautiful place?

My veins are becoming colder, and colder

I sulk lower and start to wither

The looks in my invisible eyes

Are becoming bloodshot red, angry, and bitter

I twist and I bend, and I bend and I twist,

Destroying the simplicity as an unworthy flower,

Falling apart in shreds and still looking at the rose

Crying in silence in the darkest hour

Not wanting to be who I am

Not caring for what would happen to me,

I have destroyed the very thing I didn't want to become,

I have destroyed the life of a young tortured seed.
