Perfectly, Imperfect .
The purple tulip
Some can say is perfect, simply extraordinary.
I raise it to my nose and it gently touches my lips, which sends a silent shiver through my spine.
The purple tulip
Will only last as long as it is adored
The purple tulip isn't perfect because it only lives a short time.
Spring and Summer,
When Autumn and Winter come the tulip will be ignored and covered with the deadly white blanket.
When this blanket covers them they see the bright light and die.
The purple tulip,
Will become shriveled and no longer purple
The purple tulip
Gets tossed away, because it is useless if not beautiful
Although,
The purple tulip
Is perfect because it
Can be cherished, and saved
If you find
the purple tulip
Don't lose it, love it, because
The purple tulip
Doesn't have to be perfect
Because no one is
Live like
The purple tulip
Does
Live to bring enjoyment to people's eyes
But do not live for the people
Anyone can be as beautiful as
The purple tulip
Because
The purple tulip
Is simply,
Perfectly, Imperfect
Just like you.
