• I'm falling now so scared, so hurt,
    People are changing every day.
    I see this and start to revert,
    Why can't things just stay the same?
    Every time I chance outside
    And catch myself a patch of light.
    The clouds do seem to come and hide
    it, turning brightness into blight.
    I shed a tear, it joins the rain,
    the sky has turned a dreary gray.
    It seems I must depart again
    And wait until a sunny day.

    I turn to leave but stop and glance
    At the patch in which my light had rest.
    I see a flower freely dance
    In the winds of my new tempest.
    I admire it for a short while
    Awed by it's brilliant beauty and grace.
    I touch it gently and then smile
    Now I won't be lonely in that place.
    I carefully try to uproot it
    But hear some strangers passing by.
    Before I hide I promise it
    That I'll return when no ones in sight.

    They all give it a short embrace
    But did not linger for too long.
    To take that flower from it's place
    I now knew would be terribly wrong.
    This flower is not mine to take
    Even if I need it so
    And even though my heart will break
    I know that I should let it go.
    I know I promised I'd be back
    But why return to walk away?
    Moments like these require tact,
    I can't just go and take my way.

    Who am I to think it mine,
    My life is not a fairy tale.
    A beast with beauty sounds sublime
    But flowers tend to be too frail.
    I guess I will leave it this last smile,
    This last sigh and one more wish.
    I wish you happiness all your while
    And unconditional love from those who visit.
    So think good of and remember me
    Before for good I leave this spot
    And allow yourself to see your beauty
    My precious little forget me not.
