Quiet in loving
Quick to assume
My heart's not worth showing
I'm sure it's not something you could use
Like my speech that I'm quick to cut off
The flowers that sing and bloom at the thought of you
My mouth goes dry as petals fill my lung
Fragrant words sit back on my tongue
Holding secrets I need to tell
Won't be long now I'll see you
Back to back the husks at our feet
I know you can't help the ones we meet
But what's tearing me apart is just knowing how close you were standing right next to me
And I know that digging up the roots are gonna hurt
Now that you reciprocate the depths of my words
The water from your eyes it soaked into our garden
Can't you see the buds respond to that and open
All this time you had felt this too
Pointless wondering If we knew
This is my peace - and I wish you well
I won't be gone long I'll see you
Guess I'm prone to prune
