Petals fall to the ground
as the wind tears at her skin
banishing what's without
and exposing what's within
She was a soft and delicate flower
with a heart so pure and true
but now lies in the desert sun
to dry the tears that fall for you
All of your secrets and your lies
all of your promises broken
love was the only token
yet from your lips remains unspoken
Pollen floating in the wind
like all the tears she cried
the last petal falls to the ground
at long last her love has died
