The flowers growing
Stretching it's tendrils forth
Under the canopy that holds all
I see how a dull grey leaf turn beautiful and colorful
You stood against the rain
Fighting against the wind
As I stare in amazement and wonder with each rise and fall
Now the sun sets over the mountains
From the weariest of the fountains
The sky's curtain open
Hills creep out of their shadows
And the ground gets wet preparing for a new season

As l lie on my bed shivery
I pounded on the journey we had together
I was so trapped in my thought
That I can hear myself screaming but it's muted and faint
Try to stop my eyes from crying
Then my heart start to bleed
Can't stop my tears falling
Until my eyes got swollen
Then fell asleep
As heartbreaking as a rampant snowstorm
As loud as a raging tempest
As broken as a shattered mirror
She lost my trust and I lost my confidence
Being on my mind
Thought about how carefully crafted she was
Always love staring at her perfection
Hers eyes glistened
But my feelings for her no longer flow like an ocean but a turbulence
Chasing an empty feeling along
