They Bloom in Spring

They bloom in spring, forget-me-nots,
their purple-blue like treasured thoughts
of you. The changing seasons bring
forget-me-nots. They bloom in spring.

Regrets, laments are lingering
like satin petals. Fingering
each fragile face, where past torments
are lingering; regrets, laments.

If you just knew I overcame,
you might forgive, perhaps not blame
my anguished heart for loving you.
I overcame. If you just knew.

They bloom in spring where flowers grow,
the sweet forget-me-nots. I go
to find you where my memories cling-
where flowers grow. They bloom in spring.
