Wildflower

Baby, you’re so lonely

I see you sitting there on your phone. 

You wish he would call

You wish he wouldn’t treat you

like all of the others he knows.

You save yourself every night

From the thoughts inside your mind

The things you were told

he’d save you from,

he couldn’t save you from 

after all. 

Maybe it’s time you crumble and fall.

Wait…

no…no no no.

It’s not time for that at all. 

It’s time you rise

all on your own

it’s time you grow tall.

Because, baby, you’re a wildflower

you don’t need him

to grow and prosper.

Not even a little bit,

no, not at all.
