• I saw an aging flower today
    All alone and slowly dying
    A single tear slid down my cheek
    I felt better for the crying

    There is so much deep inside
    That I keep hidden out of sight
    Walls of pain that I put up
    Built to hide me from the light

    Could you take away the hurt
    If I reached blindly for your hand
    Or would you simply turn away
    And not want to understand

    So many reasons I hold on
    None of which I can explain
    But my time will one day end
    Like a gentle summer rain

    I saw an aging flower today
    All alone and slowly dying
    A single tear slid down my cheek

    I felt better for the crying
