HYACINTHS
The smell of hyacinths in the breeze
Makes me stop and stare
Little talks of her dying hair
They wonder why I cared
Her perfect face against the scene
Her beauty and her smile
Quiet whispers of her dying life
Big eyes on fake smiles
The laugh she gave as it struck her dumb
Was hollow and profound
Light murmurs of gossip raged
They lost what I had found
She said she loved the smell of them
So I walk around and pick
Memories of her paling skin
She was tortured, she was sick
The smell of hyacinths in the breeze
Reminds me of her eyes
Light shades of dying grey
Or was that the hues of her skies?
She said she loved the look of them
so I slow my pace and stare
Visions of her last few days
Too late to say I cared
Her perfect hair in waves of brown
Makes me stop to cry
I remember how she loved it combed
My tears just will not dry
The scent of flowers in the air
Reminds me of who she was
Before disease had plagued her soul
Before she turned to dust
Her beautiful smile against my own
Drives my soul insane
I pick twelve flowers because of her
And because of what she became
She said she loved the sight of them
So I lay them on her grave
For all that people took from her
And for every thing she gave
The smell of hyacinths in the breeze
Makes me stop and stare
Little talks of her dying hair
They knew how much I cared

A/N: So like...I've been sick and vomiting all day, but I've managed to update. This is a cross path, moving away from little birdy for a while (don't worry it's still the same story). Now I'm focusing on Lucy and her mother.
