Scattered memories lay wasted,
Ravaged and discarded, and hastily gone through and tossed
Into the abyss of abandon, for the idea of what they hold is too painful to bear.
Our hearts, once united, now stand still and apart, as they have
For so very, very long,
Making my tired eyes even more weary at the thought of
The stretching of years and months and days between us
That were wasted, as if we are immortal
And can afford to keep up these things for so long.
I almost wish I could see you;
Know you, in your moments of death,
As you took your last, defiant breath,
Your arms spread and your eyes wide as fate came
And snatched you from the world of beating hearts and sunlight.
Forever is a word that does not exist-
(It never has),
And just like the nonexistence of forever, you are the same...
Nonexistent.
Lily.
A flower that wilted and died in the palm of my hand,
Without my ever noticing it in the first place.
Sisters of the garden, we were domesticated breeds,
Never weeds or wildflowers,
Although sometimes we had the hearts of those free blooms
That cannot be tamed or planted neatly in a garden.
No taming, but still, perfection lingered, nonetheless...
But now it is no more.
You are no more.
And that is the end of days, sister mine.
As it always has been.
