FLOWERFIELD WITH THORNS

Lonely, the road I've chosen, 

thorns on every step, 

often, they leave me fully torn.

Exhausting, the road I'm trying to be on.

 

Dreams, they're more than important, 

dreams, they've been charging me nonstop. 

Dreams, my bright & deep sky, 

dreams, my dark & tiring underground. 

 

Me a blooming flower, 

a flower growing strongly on its flowerfield.

Me an abandoned flower, 

the only one on which rain constantly falls. 

 

The flower whose roots reach deeply under soil,

the flower whose stem cannot be broken by just any breeze. 

Me who keeps holding on, no matter the foggy woods, 

me who keeps gazing at the sky, believing days will be better. 

 

But the days filled with doubts, 

the days my hopes betray me.

The days when the ground disappeares

& I'm aimlessly floating in the air.

The days I hate what keeps me going, 

the days when my energy is hung above the abyss.

 

When even my glowing flowerfield

and flowers with no names, 

when it all darkens, 

and when the flame in my heart suddenly leaves.

 

All those times… 

...pulling the flower underground, 

and I ask;

What's the purpose? 

Where's the meaning? 

Why am I headlessly trying to reach the dream? 

Wanting to be Someone, am I anyone? 

 

Verses & rhymes, 

watering, powering my meadow, endlessly. 

Embracing my heart, 

they will always be the beggining & end of my path. 

I'm not letting go, they're making me strong, 

protecting me, no break, no stop. 

 

And so the flower is blooming again, 

silently, patiently, in its element. 

In a world where only on the loudest the Sun shines, 

her voice may be inaudible, it seems. 

But the sky will be reached by her, some day,

she won't allow to be shut down. 

 

She'll fight for the ones who

once blew soft petals for her, 

she'll thank them from pedestal, 

she'll fight for the ones who wish to touch the stars too, 

she'll learn and rise in between thorns. 

 

Flowerfield, 

the place which will always be

where The Flower was born, 

and so I grow…
