Lost Cause


A sad day amongst the rest

The day he lost a friend he knew best

Lost time can't make up for the things he done

Stopwatch not even on but she decided to run

Away from all the problems she was facing

So blinded by her sense of direction she's lost but can't return home

Logically he talks to her his thoughts come straight from the dome

But alas he loses her after a while now she home

Its not clear to her she only acting like a child

But he know she a seed waiting to blossom into a beautiful flower

He waters her gradually until that day finally comes

The day when she understands she is a beautiful one
