i didn't know how beautiful you were
until i was looking in from outside
i didn't see everything you are
until i let you go with goodbye
and now it hurts
in places i didn't know could hurt
and now it burns
in spaces i didn't know could burn
now i'm aching with something so intense
and everytime i think of you
nothing in me makes sense
i wasn't ripe, i'd barely sprouted
but you picked me still
i thought i'd died from too much pruning
but my blossoms only chilled
frozen in space
hanging on a vine
dangling ripely
ready for a bite
but gardens come and go with seasons
i need rain and sunlight to grow
i am drenched in stormy feelings now
because i let you go
maybe enough rain
can wash away the aching
maybe enough storms
can stop my heart from breaking
maybe enough winter
can salve my bleeding soul
maybe i have yet to learn
there's cruel beauty in the cold
jennn.....sad :(
