The flowers bloom,
But never stay
Watch them as
They all blow away
Their beauty enchants
And captures our hearts,
But always turns on us
And pelts it with darts.
They leave us wanting
They leave us waiting
They take our breath
And hold it until their death
They blow away
And what do we say,
"It's only a flower"
Until the last hour
But they take a chunk of us
And leave us in a fuss
They make us scared
And we think they cared
It makes us afraid of love
And cower from what's above
Because we get attached,
And think we are perfectly matched
But we get left behind
While they go off to find
And discover
Whatever they may uncover
We must stay back
As if we lack
What we need to be with that kind
While we think, "How could I have been so blind?"
So we watch as they travel away
On the wind
Without even the descents to say
"Good-bye" as they round the bend.
