You are a flower
Blooming and blooming
Over day and night



















First you are a seed
Grown with mothers love
Then you’re the sprout
Just wanting to shout

You are a flower
Blooming and blooming
Over day and night

Finally your first petal
You think you have fond love
Another then another comes
Your loved

You are a flower
Blooming and blooming
Over day and night

Then you’re stem is broken
Of a true love you thought you had
And now you lose your petals
As love is dieng away
From the love once spoken

You are a flower
Blooming and blooming
Over day and night

Then slowly withered
And now your gone
There is the flower
the flower you used to be

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."
