A Seed Yet To Bloom

I am a seed of a gracious flower,
Waiting to bloom, containing a devine power,
My mind, filled with ideas and devotion,
But sadly, it's like I'm growing in slow motion,
What is it, which blocks in my way?
A wall? Some sort of obstacle? I really hope it doesn't stay.

Will I forever be this way?
Hence, I remain as I am for now, a seed of a flower,
Growing in slow motion by the hour,
Waiting for something to come,
I cannot always rely on this dazzling sun.

As days and nights go past,
I finally understand why I am last,
Those other beautiful flowers know what they need,
Where as I am still remaining as this simple, unsatisfying seed.

Sounds like a dandelion's voice, I love wildflowers the best, yet most people prefer roses, satisfying is in the eye of the beholder it seems. Nicely pen'd.

Waiting to bloom, containing a devine power,

Not sure if you were taking poetic license with 'divine'.

Thank you so much Frieda,
To most people this would obviously seem like I'm talking about a flower, but, really I am talking about myself and how my lack of confidence in myself is holding me back in my life, but I am quite a positive person, but I just lack confidence and I really want to overcome my fear of things in life and be more confident in myself :)
But thank you for your thoughts, it's so nice to get lovely reviews like this :)
