................
There’s a flower wilting on the vine.., the sun is gone and no water falls upon the ground..,.. cracks are all around..,.. bleak and bare.
.. ..
A life once live with beauty strong now falls upon broken
dreams that never grew
beyond the blue..,.. not
one clue.
.. ..
It’s a heart that can’t see through the crowd..,.. can’t let anyone around..,..
to see the pain, just die in vain..,.. it’s
all the same.
.. ..
As the world goes round and round again..,.. never missing even one remembrance of the fading
colors..,.. none to discover..,.. lies uncovered.
.. ..
There’s a flower wilting on the vine..,..
no more singing can be heard..,.. nor
bells do ring..,.. it’s gone for good.
.. ..
Would there be any kindness in holding dear..,.. this flower in its ending hours..,.. a drenching drink..,..
from the well so deep?
.. ..
The scarlet petals begin to bleed their colors on the ground
so bleak and fade away..,.. nothing left
to say.
