i sat in the garden
thinking of you and i
picking at every petal
as time passed me by
i watched as a bee
flew past my face
as i played with my sleeve
made out of lace
i watched as a butterfly
landed on a flower
thinking of the time we spent together
down to the last hour
you made me laugh
you made me cry
why'd you leave me?
i'd never ask why
because i know that every end
has a beginning
our love worked best
when the two of us were
sinning
the last day i saw you
your breath smelt of cigars
as your boney fingers strummed
at every string of your guitar
in a way we were living,
but we still seemed so dead
somedays i wish i went to college
but i stayed after school and got
high with you
instead.
