Our Own

Don’t leave me outside
 like a rose on a rainy day.
 I'm a ray of sunlight
 For you to find
 And follow. A fresh day
 you can't leave behind.
 I stand strong on this pedestal
 Where I belong
 Not out in the throng
 Of other people. I stand out
 Because I am strong.
 I'm not the dirt
 The flower expels.
 Treat me like the flower
 For my spirit is delicate and full of heat.
 Don't fall under the spell
 Of the light and airy.
 Not all is bliss.
 When I think of us together,
 Sitting on the floor
 Not caring if we look ridiculous
 I feel memory go blurry
 Love is not always meticulous.
 People say things when they are afraid
 But I don't fear your wickedness.
 I will not slay you
 Unless you ask me to.
 Call me then to your aid.
 Tell me to stay.
 Here are the crossroads
 Where things might change.
 I don't want to be disappointed.
 Life with you is strange.
