I wish you were a daisy

If I could've loved you

I would've bought fields of tulips

just to gift them to you

even tho you're more like a rose

you're fierce and unique

got to approach you carefully 

so I decided to wear gloves

so i could still fondle your leaves 

but they got teeth

tried to walk around them

and avoid your thorns

but I got stung anyways

and now im bleeding 

since I cut my own hand

to stop myself from grabbing you with my bare hands

because sometimes I am illusory

and during those times you still are a flower

a smaller one though 

one I can hold

i only had a glimpse

but you were joyful and innocent

and sometimes you weren't 

but you'd let me hold you anyways
