The prideful roses look upon

The carnation

White as snow

Pure as gold

The roses sneer and

without hesitation

Fluff their petals

And turn their nose

How pitiful

The white carnation

Stood its ground

All alone

How pitiful

The white carnation

Was born into hate

And in it grown

The jealous daisies look upon

The carnation

White as snow

Pure as gold

The daisies laugh and

Without hesitation

Point and mock

Their lowly foe

How pitiful

The white carnation

Must cry in silence

All alone

How pitiful

The white carnation

Has no friend

To call its own

The malicious bluebells look upon

The white carnation

White as snow

Pure as gold

The bluebells sigh

And without hesitation

Tell the carnation

It's time to go

How pitiful

The white carnation

Died that day

All alone

The prideful, jealous, malicious

flowers

Should have known.

They should have known.
