wall flower power

delicate petal, so pale
your breath brings melodies
painting the delighted tears hanging
amidst the softest of night skies

alas, you flush with a gentle pink
holding back the glow you possess within
shy lil girl
if only you'd shine your light

how darkness would shake!
the beauties of the earth would at last
be seen... be seen
and revel in glories untold

yet you dim beneath the lies
the ones that caress your fears.
and all the while you hold the strength
if only you'd choose to wield...

if only you'd choose courage
