As much as I miss you, dear, I cannot keep watering dead flowers, Not even an IV can save them now. Why I'm still trying is unclear, But I've been giving CPR for hours, Trying to save this somehow. I cannot keep watering dead flowers. I cannot keep tangling with powers Way beyond my ken. I cannot keep hoping for more. I cannot keep fighting this war And losing all over again.

Dead Flowers Water Dead Hopes
As much as I miss you, dear, I cannot keep watering dead flowers, Not even an IV can save them now. Why I'm still trying is unclear, But I've been giving CPR for hours, Trying to save this somehow. I cannot keep watering dead flowers. I cannot keep tangling with powers Way beyond my ken. I cannot keep hoping for more. I cannot keep fighting this war And losing all over again.
