Garden of Desperation
Beautiful in life
Freshly budding pedals unfold
Open to the world
Fresh for the plucking
So you snatched it up
Made it your own
You made it the center of attention
Enjoyed all its beauty
Held on to it
Nurtured it
Went out of your way to make it last
Naive to the fact that like everything else it will die
Time has past
Beauty has faded
Feelings of sorrow settles in
As the end nears persistence prevails
Noble attempts are made
Measures of preservation are taken
Signs of desperation are now obvious
People are starting to notice
When is it to late
When do you let go
When do you let it die
When is enough, enough

Stop being blue and come play.
