Four Point Twelve: Parting

Must the petals fall now and

surrender to the wind?

Must I step back and 

willingly rescind?

This could be a subtle goodbye

for the buds of our future don't seem to multiply

The troubles and confusions are somehow impolite

So I seek out the advice of the night

But our stars refuse to answer me

Am I now on the threshold of our finale?
