‘The day the Lover’s Killed the Flowers’

When did it end

What day was it

Was the sun shining

Or the clouds black

With the threat of rain

Was it a Friday

Had work been tough

Or was it a lazy Sunday

With last night’s dishes still in the sink

The day the Lover’s killed the flowers?

An open bottle of red

Sat unfinished and souring

Was it the day

You called me and didn’t speak

Was it the day the old man died

And you said it was sad

He was all alone

The day the Lover’s killed the Flowers?
