Autumn Ii

It's time to start loving myself, 
It's time to start moving on, 
Let your memory wither by itself
And let my new flame be born.

It's just a tiny spark, 
The tiniest of hope, 
Helping me in the dark, 
Helping me to finally cope. 

I sought the love of others
Before I sought my own
A flaw as fragile as burning feathers,
A flaw you've never shown.
