she has always dreamt of being a flower,

little did she know she was the whole meadow who thought of herself as barely a flower.

she gave up the water that was poured upon her and allowed the other flowers to receive them instead

slowly, as she gave in to her incessant selfless acts, she weakened and from the lack of sustenance did she die
