He gave me dead flowers
So I can smell them every day
The rotten petals falling
The color of decay

The washed out sunflower
The dehydrated leaves
The mold on the water
The color of debris

The richly red rose
Now drooping to the floor
The color of love
Existed no more

But still I saved the flowers
And smelled them every day
And watered them with tears
To let them grow again.

I still talk about you
Like you hold the world in your hands

I want you
All of you
The good the bad
Everything in between

But do you want me
For everything I am
Like I want you
For everything you are

I’ve grown attached
But you seem distant
Please let me in
I just want you

I have so much to say
So much to express
But how to put it all in words
Is something I can’t do
Girl, just find yourself
And be your own sunshine
Be that positive motivating force
In order to keep everything in line
Rise above those obstacles
That simply weigh you down
Let no one dull your sparkle
Lift yourself and adjust that crown

I feel like you don’t care
It shouldn’t be just about me
But it’s not only about you
I’m here too
And I miss you
But you’re long gone
Lost in a world of you
