she's a blooming flower before
now, she looks like she's sore
as if she doesn't want it anymore
she said she's still happy
but in reality
she's not as she said she is
the other flowers around her
gathered and talked to her
but her love for him was greater
she refused to listen
she's not what she's like then

he knew what the other flowers
have said
so he said
"stay away from them, or stay away from me."
of course, the tulip agrees
to stay away from the lilies,
dahlias, and peonies
that's not what she wants willingly
it just happens that she's not free
from his cruelty
"help me."
