Orchid |
Me and my helmet |
Such an unconventional kid |
All intense and kinetic |
At best tolerated from afar |
Not yet arrested |
And by that I mean betrothed |
Though a start I am newly courted |
I’ve just not been trusted with alters |
I’m a sweet piece of work |
Well-intentioned, yet disturbed |
Wrongly labeled and under-fed |
Treated like a rose as an orchid |
My friends, as they weigh in |
Get understandably protective |
They have a hard time being objective |
So inside we cancel each other out |
I’m a sweet piece of work |
Well-intentioned and unloved |
Unlabeled and misunderstood |
Treated like a rose as an orchid |
You’ve brought water to me |
Making sure my bloom rebounds |
You know best of what my special care allows |
So I’ve lived in my blind spot |
Thought myself usual when I’m not |
And your garden is a nice spot |
As long as it is brave and where you are |
For this sweet piece of work |
High maintenance and deserted |
I’ve been different and deserving |
Treated like a rose as an orchid |
Sweet piece of work |
Overwhelmed, unobserved |
I’ve been bowed down to, but so misread |
Treated like a rose as an orchid |
