The Selfish Dandelion
I feel like a dandelion blowing in the wind
Like I have a thousand wishes,
Yet not one of them is for me
Any moment I could be plucked
Plucked from the ground
And all my wishes would be stolen
All taken for only one wish
I have a thousand seeds to make a thousand wishes
Yet I am only one flower
I can only grant one
That one wish
That special wish
The best wish they would wish
Though I am a weed
I am also a flower
Though I am a granter
I am also selfish
I do good
But I also want more
My seeds are spread through the air
More granters are made
More wishes are wished
But I still want more
I want to make my own wish
I want to be selfish
I don't want the wishes to be stolen again
But I am but a flower
I am but a weed
I can not make the wish I wish
When I just wish to be free
