Long off the beaten path
No trails leading it back
A lonely flower sits lost
Hidden beneath the moss
Standing in never leaving water
Drowning with ever storm
Beaten down a little bit more
A never ending settling score
Broken down by the times
Spirit weaker than the stem
Bending in the defeat
Barely hanging on to its last leaf
Here it stands
Without a voice
Uniqueness long gone
Petals faded by the sun
No radiance to stand out
Nothing to save its grace
A flower of broken dreams
Lost deep amongst the weeds
