It's that time of year again
I can smell it in the air
The flowers are blooming
Classes are ending
Do you remember
How happy we were?
Do you miss those days?
Do you even remember my name?
I cannot step outside anymore
The familiar smell reminds me
Of your tender smile
Your gentle I love yous
The dust settles around me
As I enclose myself in darkness
Too afraid to open the door
I fear the colour green
Though I dream all I may
Of running barefoot through the field
You would be by my side
Lost in a sea of colour
But a year has passed
And you are still gone
They tell me I should move on
They're probably right
I try to throw open the sash
To let the fresh air in
But I'm hit with a wave of memories
Of empty promises and false love
I think I'll settle for the dust
