He said that she was like this strange flower he had just discovered
A flower that couldn't bloom in just any environment
The environment had to give her fertility to grow into something beautiful
She had to grow into this beauty alone

The sun shone down on her giving her soul the motivation to go on
So she became positive and blessed
Even the rain drops couldn't penetrate her happiness
Oh no, the raindrops fell down to her feet and she grew from them

She grew stretching out her arms as far as they would go
As freely as she could
Without judgment nor hatred
However this flower wanted to grow, she grew just that way
Without anyone trying to put her in a box
Nobody there to cut her limbs away

This flower was isolated in this majestic swamp
Glistening trees around her
Sparkling water
And the sun beaming down rays of love
Everything around this flower was beautiful
Because the flower wanted her life to be beautiful, everything in it and around it
Alone in this stunning swamp

So her life was just that
Free, beautiful, and majestic

The only thing her life lacked was the complete love that she wished for

The love that the sun provided
The warm beams of light given to her with strength
No way could she reach the sun
Without the trees' help and consent

The flower grew as high as she could
Stretching her limbs to the sun
Yearning to be with the sun
Desperately hungry for the sun's love
With no desire for help from the trees
For she wanted to be alone

So she grew and grew
And she stretched and stretched

Until she couldn't stretch anymore
All the days of her life the flower tried to reach for the sun
She grew tired
Tired of reaching for a love that may not be real

The flower grew old
Withered and exhausted
Her petals began to droop and her stem started to bend

The passion was still there
To experience the love
The passion lie there with her
She wasn't sure why it was that she couldn't reach the sun
She felt that she did everything she could
For it was too late that she finally realized
It was too late when she finally understood

This strange flower always seemed to push away the things that could help her
The trees tried to lend her a branch to get her with the precious sun
The flower was stubborn in all ways possible
So her dreams of being with the sun were now very slim

Until one stormy night the flower was being tossed and turned
The tree couldn't stand to see her being tortured
The tree took the flower by the stem and rescued her
And the flower woke up in a loving embrace

This flower has never felt love in such a vibrant way
She no longer needed to go to the sun
The answer of love had been right in front of her the whole time
The tree was the flower's special one

From then on the flower grew vines cascading all over the tree
Adorning it with love and beauty
The love and beauty that she finally got to feel
Because her heart saw what her eyes couldn't see
