I hold you so deep in my heart When I listen to my soul Your constant ringing, Is still guiding my every step. You have left me and even if not by choice The anger, The sadness, Is still drumming in sync with my heart. Your memory is like a withering flower. Slowly starting to bend slowly, dying What am I to do? I share my water, my food, even my love. But your time is up I hold that dead flower so gently in my hands But still it crumbles Being the fool that I am told I am I try to mend the broken petals back together In hope that somehow You will bloom once again Into the beautiful flower That I remember you to be That is still in my dreams...
