The Flower that Never Bloomed

A seed grew inside me

A seed I couldn’t hold on to

And though it's in my best interest

It hurts to let go of you


You were the first in my garden

A garden still young and true

And though I'm not ready

I wish I could watch you bloom


Oh flower made from love

I will never forget you


Oh flower please forgive me

For what I have done to you


Young pure and beautiful

With odds stacked against you

Know that future flowers will grow

From the garden you once knew


And though they will blossom

They could never replace you


Oh flower that never bloomed

Know that I do love you


To the flower that never bloomed

Your mother misses you
