"PETALS"
I've often wondered if there's
Ever been a perfect family
I've always longed for undividedness
And sought stability
A flower taught me how to pray
But as I grew , that flower changed
She started failing in the wind
Like golden petals scattering
And I miss you dandelion
And even love you
And I wish there was a way
For me to trust you
But it hurts me every time
I try to touch you
But I miss you dandelion
And even love you
I gravitated towards a patriarch
So young predictably
I was resigned to spend my life
With a maze of misery
A boy and a girl befriended me
We ' re bonded through despondency
I stayed so long but finally
I fled to save my sanity
And I miss you little sis and
Little brother
And I hope you realize
I ' ll always love you
And although you're struggling
You will recover.
So many I considered
Closest to me
Turned on a dime and sold me
Out dutifully
Although that knife was chipping
Away at me
They turned their eyes away and
Went home to sleep.
And I missed a lot of life
But I ' ll recover
Though I know you really like
To see me suffer
Still I wish that you and I ' d
Forgive each other
' Cause I miss you, mi patre
And really loved you
I tried so hard
But you drove me away
To preserve my sanity
And I found the strength to break away. 1 Like |
