Why are dandelions so sensitive?

Why are they so fragile?

Falling off with just one touch

Like tiny wishes trying to reach the sky

They fly up and up and then BAM

Down they go like your hopes

Down they go like you dreams

Dandelions fall, they fail to survive

After seeing the sunrise they think, ok goodbye

Growing from another flower

They reach and kill that beauty of yellow

Stabbing the petals of what once was there

Looks like your wishes are heard by a murderer

You trust easy like always

For you make wishes on a weed

Invasive and uncontrollable

It hides underground and waits for spring to intervene  

Dandelions are sensitive but so are you

So I guess it wasn't a surprise when this died so soon
