The Lonely Wall Flower


A lonely wall flower sang to me
Such lovely verses it sang to me

From a perch so very high
On this lonely decrepit wall

A lonely wall flower sang to me
It sang to the deep depths of my soul

The passage of time is visible
On this graffiti covered wall

A lonely wall flower sang to me
But still I wonder if I understood

This speck of beauty on a broken place
On a wall that might fall tomorrow

A lonely wall flower sang to me
Such lovely verses it sang to me

A lonely wall flower sang to me
Sitting pretty in my kitchen window
