There's nothing in me,
but emotion and thought
In a field of sunflowers
I am a lily, that's lost.
Screaming, "save me!"
Trust me I know the cost
"Pick me!"
Let me writher and rot
Please do not leave me in gloom
I will not bloom next summer,
And I blame you.
I need to die to be alright
Help me rise again,
Hold me in your hands
You say, "I will be your friend"
Then you leave me in the dark
Bring sunflowers to the eulogy
You told me I was not them, but a lily
I do not have eyes, yet I know I am art
I want to glitter with the stars
I know you are the one who tore me apart
Stuck my fragments inside of a jar
Set me on fire
My inclination is gone
See me,
in the sky, and not in the mirror
See me,
in the pasture, and not in your tears
See me,
on the ground, and not as your fears
Do not dream of me, but remember me for years

My greatest heartbreak is to be forgotten.
