I'm like a flower encased in its shell,
quiet, shy and closed off from the world,
Waiting for the sun to shine,
A chance to be the real me,
I'm like a flower encased in its shell,
Lost in the wind,
Waiting to be found,
Silently swaying not making a sound,
I'm like a flower encased in its shell,
Inside are the secrets I may never tell,
I'm like a flower encased in its shell,
Maybe one day I'll learn to trust,
My shell will fall and hit the ground,
And I'll blossom,
Because I will have been found.
