Flowers in Flames
dozens of flowers
thrown to the ground
I’m lighting a match
that sends smoke all around
the fire falls down
to the flowers below
flames burst up
causing a glow
these colorful plants
are turning to black
these flowers in flames
they won’t be brought back
maybe you’ll see
that this is the end
stop sending me flowers
stop trying to mend
there’s nothing to fix
there’s nothing to cure
your flowers are ashes
of this I am sure
thrown to the ground
I’m lighting a match
that sends smoke all around
the fire falls down
to the flowers below
flames burst up
causing a glow
these colorful plants
are turning to black
these flowers in flames
they won’t be brought back
maybe you’ll see
that this is the end
stop sending me flowers
stop trying to mend
there’s nothing to fix
there’s nothing to cure
your flowers are ashes
of this I am sure
