Our love started out as a Red Rose Bud, <br />So pure and lovely. <br />Grew to be a Red Rose, <br />With love and respect. <br />You compared me to a Lily, <br />With so much beauty. <br />You are my Daisy, <br />So loyal, but this I will never tell. <br />Our love is like a Carnation, <br />So sweet and lovely. <br />When you left you gave me a striped Carnation, <br />Saying that you wish you could be with me. <br />I started to feel like a Dark Rose, <br />I was in mourning. <br />When you left I felt like the meaning of a Yellow Carnation, <br />Resentment. <br />So I sent you an Azaela, <br />Saying, take care of yourself. <br />I felt like a Petunia, <br />With anger and resentment building inside. <br />So instead of yelling, I gave you a Sweet Pea, <br />Saying goodbye. <br />Even after all of this, I still have the flower you sent me, <br />The Forget-Me-Not, <br />Saying I am your one true love, as you are mine.<br /><br />Tiffany Wolf<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/flowers-of-the-heart/
