Bloom in the Spotlight

I am in a state of peace, tranquillity, and happiness, without any worries,

I can feel the wispy, soft wind flowing and dancing.

When the sun shines,

my beauty and brightness reflects on others.

People are hopeful when they look at me, and share their innermost thoughts with me.

However, it gets overpowering when the all the focus is on me,

they see a peaceful, still, living beauty, while I see constant flashing lights.

Despite my efforts to flee into the clouds, they continue to pursue me,

and always find a way to catch and get me.

I am the centre of attention and the brightest, I have everything anyone could want, except the sense of being free.

I do wonder though, would I be happier if I just blended in with others,

if I was in the corner, away from everyone else, living for myself, not for others.

I would love to experience both sides of things.

But it's fine where I am, I'll never make out what's going on,

around me, or why they do it, but I guess that's the joy of it.
