Dying Flowers

/No one ever told me I’d have to say goodbye\

I always thought people like you and me

《Went on for eternity》

Now I see that people are like flowers

•Withering under the heat of life•

Eventually fading away to nothing but brittle petals

~A ghost of what they used to be~

It saddens me to see a bouquet of roses

/◇/Seemingly discarded at a grave\◇\

But now I know they’re just a picture of you

+A person that once breathed and lived like a flower+

Turning their face up towards the sun

●Just to crumble and die when the snow came●

Disappearing without a trace

|As white blanketed the ground with an icy hug|

I miss you like the winter misses spring

(But I hate you like the spring hates winter)
