It flows through the veins of the forgotten. It lives, yet has not taken air in years. It is ashen of colour, Hard-hearted of thought, It lies dormant until it doesn't. It feels lonely. You mean it makes them feel lonely? No. It makes them feel loved, For feelings are love, Even the ashen ones. It flows through the veins of the forgotten Where the sun will never reach it But every now and then A wind breaks through And brings autumn leaves Or spring blossoms Violet snow And for a day it exists in colours And on the quiet days It recalls

The Riddle
It flows through the veins of the forgotten. It lives, yet has not taken air in years. It is ashen of colour, Hard-hearted of thought, It lies dormant until it doesn't. It feels lonely. You mean it makes them feel lonely? No. It makes them feel loved, For feelings are love, Even the ashen ones. It flows through the veins of the forgotten Where the sun will never reach it But every now and then A wind breaks through And brings autumn leaves Or spring blossoms Violet snow And for a day it exists in colours And on the quiet days It recalls
