"bloom" #36

this bud was created
not meant to be shaded
open in plain view
this bloom is for you
daily changing and unsettled
one by one opens a new petal
always naked and exposed
that's the life that i chose
because true beauty inside
does not come when we hide
only when i'm on display
beauty blossoms day by day
