FORGET ME NOT
Look upon turquoise or indigo blue
Delicate forget me nots
Gathered for you
Wrapped in a bouquet
Cellophanes transparent view
Delivered with love
From me to you
I could of sent roses
Petals of red
Standing so proud
With thorns on their stems
I could of chose Lily's
Crisp, pure and white
Clarity exposed
You don't understand
Right?
Well let me remind you
Of a verse I once read
It stayed in my memory
Echoes in my head
Offer them flowers
Send symbols of life
Red for the passion
For truth, send white
To be remembered
Or just make them think
Carnations so simple
Of delicate pink
To be reminded
Send shades of blue
Offer them flowers
That's all you can do
So following my heart
With the help of this verse
I am sorry my darling
For all of the hurt
Forgive my behaviour
The words said in haste
Whilst blue flowers remind you
Of this love that awaits
