Tulips And You

⁣Choked with the valiance, you smiled⁣

⁣Torn body in the red dress of sacrifice⁣

⁣Beams of your crystal soul came flickering through the surface⁣

⁣because just like roses, you arrived.⁣

⁣

⁣I was contented because you were home just like every time⁣

⁣But a piece of me knew, you'll go again since you're so devoid of fear in your eyes⁣

⁣I asked for you to be a savior of my heart too⁣

But just like a bird, you flew back to the south, leaving me in your past life.⁣

⁣⁣

⁣Then they handed me a folded up letter⁣

Tied with a phantom ribbon, that was the last day ever⁣

⁣Because the last time I had truly lived was with you⁣

And our last memory comes with the congregation, your casket, lilac tulips and you⁣

⁣

⁣You still come gusting with the wind sometimes,⁣

⁣Skimming across my hair, touching my shallow heart up to my half-filled eyes⁣

⁣I am certain you will mend this broken as I was someone you loved⁣

⁣And you know, nothing would take away this pride.
