About
7 years have passed
I feel a light of hope and retrace a tiny life of flower that I could not save
Even the spring could not make my heart warm. My mind casted back on that time when looking upon flowers trembling in the breeze
I kept thinking the same thing over and over until time has begun to move again
A fruit on the twig dropped a seed and someday it will sprout gently from the ground
I am taking a walk
And look up to the sky
Feeling the wind
My feet catch the sand in the ground and it takes my breath away
“It will be given to you again”
Those words are always with me
Finally I meet you
Finally I feel something melt in my heart
Finally I smile with true joy
My spring has just come
