Hopeless


I wish I could live like a white lily
But searching for colors, I remain foolish and silly.

I saw a colorful ButterflyVisiting the place
I asked it to kiss me and color my face
But before my eyes it became a busy bee
Maybe, it saw a flower with more nectar than me.

I saw the shades of sunset and the splendor of Red
I asked the bright sun to get that color for my forehead
But while I was waiting, He left me in darkness
Yes - I should not have asked for a color so precious.

I wish I could live like a white lily
But searching for colors, I remain foolish and silly
