Uncredited Dandelions

The dandelion I picked,
so unappreciated and
overlooked.
It's a weed, a nuisance,
something
in
the
way.
It is like me,
and I like it.
People don't notice the
delicate beauty.
The inside is hallow,
with no soul.
No one sees the
bright yellow petals
on the exterior with
slightly frayed edges.
No one notices the
small golden petals of the
interior,
curled at the ends.
Its heart, its core,
clumped together,
wishing not to be broken,
protecting itself,
like so many others.
Despite its fear,
it stands tall on
its striped stem,
smiling tall,
its squiggly chin
raised up high,
proving its strength.
Yet underneath all the
sunshine and yellow
lies a dark underside.
The cover from its birth
is black and singed at the edges,
breaking its streak of purity,
scarred forever.
No one stops to see the
hidden secrets,
people are too eager to destroy it.
