Flowers A dream turned ash, a love set free,
But from the scars, blooms self-belief's decree.
No tears for what could never stay,
Instead, a heart that lights its own way.
Cherry nails and whispered sand,
A love song sung by my own hand.
Words once hurtful, now fall like rain,
Nourishing strength that won't wane.
No longer pleading, eyes open wide,
In the mirror, a love I can't hide.
Dancing solo, a joyful beat,
My own embrace, oh so sweet.
You said you couldn't, but now I see,
The greatest love lives fiercely in me.
No longer chasing what's out of reach,
I bloom anew, beyond compare, beyond speech.
The echo of "I can" rings true,
A love song I write, just for me, just for you.
For even when hearts choose separate ways,
The power to love still brightly blazes.
