The Seeds of a Dandelion

Went to the field
And plucked a dandelion from right under me
Always loved dandelions they're wild, hopeful, and most of all free
Put it between my heart, and made my wish
Love me, that is all I ask
The seeds on wings, fragile things, traveling the winds they go

If only he could love me for the person I am, and not the figure I possess
For loving what you see and loving what you touch
Only your eyes and your lust would love me
And that kind of love isn't enough

I need something else
I need something more
I need someone, who can lift me from this cold floor
From this abyss of one-sided love
An empty emotion

But how men cannot change
But like the seeds of a dandelion that can let go,
Maybe I should
And travel and find a different set of eyes to life
