(poem) The Time You Were Once Mine

Once I found a flower that's beginning to wither

It's the only flower that's different from the other

And then I figured that its life began to scatter

Because its heart was left there as it shatters

That little flower can somehow be compared to me

For the person I once loved left me here so he could flee

He left me here crying and wishing for his return

And even hoping that my life won't take a different turn

I couldn't leave there for me to move on completely

For I couldn't afford to leave our golden memory

A memory that became a proof of us together

And I wouldn't forget it one way or another

A second chance is what I'm asking from you

For me to prove that my love has always been true

But instead, you never came to my side again

And you left me here as I bear all the sorrow and pain

I've felt that I've lost everything when you left me

But I'm still standing here asking Him to answer my plea

I only wish that the Lord would give me the sign

For I want to return to the time you were once mine
