Paper flowers

Dear darling
The past few days
Have been hell
Searching for the light
That I could never find
That I could never reach

For the days you harbor
For the years you let go by
I thought I finally let you go
Why am I feeling this way?
Why am I here with you again?

We have faded in our colors
Like worn, paper flowers
Losing what made us unique

We have faded in our colors
Like worn, paper flowers
Giving up on feeling complete

Even the wind still calls your name
I can hear it in the breeze
It echoes through the treeline
It's not the same sound it used to be

There will never be a place for me
Even though I'm the one to blame
Don't let me wait here in the dark
