A ride that shows you ups and downs,

you fall and then you stand like a mountain,

asking them to walk to come closer.

As efforts always intrigue you more than love.

Life is more than emotions in a bowl

of vegetables and squeezing your nose while eating

something you never wished for.

Putting your beauty at the table

waiting for the appreciation that you always wanted from a guy.

It's a roller coaster ride when you are at a point

where you get butterflies in your stomach

and your whole body sometimes.

You crave the feeling to be in someone's arms

but do not want your soul to get hurt

you know that is the purest you have in this world.

You cherish yourself sometimes like a cherry blossom,

but deep down you know that situations will change

and cherry blossoms have a short life.

Your life is cherry blossom, you have it and it's pink.
