You let me in your life, a life that shouldn’t be for granted
You let me come inside, inside an open heart and minded
Though I wanted in your arms, but they were crossed
I think I lost it all, lost it all before I ever had it
I think I lost friends, lost them all in a search for something better
I could use them now, for I am lost
Take another breath, breath in the autumn night air
Take another sip, drink it down swallow it
That’s the taste of me, on your lips, now I’m inside
I thought I heard your voice, out the window I left open
I thought I saw you there, in the shadows of my closet
I guess I think too much, and I am wrong
I took the month of May, May I think that I’m a Gardner
I took those seeds we bought, Buried them like the feelings felt
I put them in the ground, where they belong
It took the summer months, Months spent watching and growing
It took away my plans, Plans I was using for self building
Took all of my tears, to water plants
Now it’s finally grown, to such great height I couldn’t have imagined
Now it time to bloom, watch its flower slowly opens my eyes
To a world outside, I had missed, I can’t have it back
I’m old and withered now, Withered to a journey I was taken
I’m not a widower, for my love was misplaced and not taken
My withered bones they hurt, in winter chills
