For Why Do Flowers Fall?

For Why Do Flowers Fall?

A Poem by Eli Davis

I never thought I could love the way I found myself loving you.
Days keep going by and I realize I've never known what to do.
Show me the way, because I have grown blind from the lasts.
Forgive me darling, but I grow restless of my past.
But they say history seems to repeated itself
and to be honest with you it's getting bad for my health.
You see I've been dying for so long.
Cancer cells filled my lungs
When there were so many others to come and take my breath away.
They took more than just my breath away.
But like a flower I grew stronger when the waters from storms 
filled my veins and I stood taller to just carry on.
I understood why my heart shatters.
Not just for you to pick up the pieces and put them back together,
but so you can mold me to fit in your hands.
Trim off the damaged pieces and make me stand again.
I never thought I could love the way I found myself loving you.
But now i understand why I needed to wait so long for you.
