Dandelion

I found a dandelion today, and knew i was lucky.
Although, you were in California and I was stuck in Turkey.
You said our fate was not meant to be,
of course I replied that love was the key.

The dandelion had died two days later.
The same day I found out you were a traitor.
You started dating that girl you met at the game.
You said it was your fault and I was not to blame.

I buried the rest of the dandelion and smiled.
I realized that it wasn't love, and I was just a child.
Now, after all these years,
I have to thank you because you washed away my silly fears.

I found another dandelion today,
I had to smile. So much could happen, after all it was only May.
