I never thought much about the how the seasons change It was a fact of life that seemed to float right past me I never appreciated the change it could bring until I visited you The place where your body rested under a stone name tag Was colder then the spring air So when I knelled to speak to you like I used to I was shocked Flowers had started to bud in the freshly dug soil And it suddenly hit me that you were gone Time wouldn't stop for you or I And I had to start over For the first time in years I wept like a child I can no longer live in the shadows for I might wilt So I'm sorry that I must go, I might never visit you again But I need to find a place where I can bloom
