i am lonely... like the orange tree.

to wait for winter is to have no solstice.

The lonely spring will share my deep distain

The sharp clawing summer shall never know my pain...


I am sacred to myself... like the saphire.

their jealous beams of salt shall ebb my flow

Ill wait underground to be discovered....

to give up all control of where i go....


I am only one of many... like the grape...

to choose me over others is a sin...

Ill wait for the expiration date...

and shine unto myself... ill fly within.....

And brings me to despair.

There's a crack inside this heart
Something that will never be healed ,
I can't give anything to anyone

Very nice! You used very effective adjectives, I loved the "lonely", "sharp" and "sacred" parts, i especially liked the word "jealous" in there too... really good.
