Dandelions

You move through the air like the wind borne seeds of dandelions
Swaying and shifting, dancing to the tune of the wind of change
Swift and subtle, elegent and enigmatic nonetheless
Leaving behind a field of nothingness
carrying one's hope with each gentle breeze

But your lies lingers like a dormant menace
Anticipating the arrival of your trigger happy mechanism
To eventually reveal the devastating truth about your existence
That you are merely nothing more than just another pretty face in the crowd
Mesmerizingly unforgetable even in death
Hauntingly beautiful but not without its scars

In the end, dandelions are nothing more than just another pesky weed
Only fooling around with you to do their deeds
When you no longer serve a purpose
It'll leave your side
with a gush of a strong breeze

P/S:- So dandelions, you are tolerated but not welcome.

So many dandelions lurking around me, I hope they wither and die.

Hey there sis,

Eventually they will... and the cycle will start again.
