He bought flowers for a girlfriend
he hadn’t seen in 40 years.
Their’s had been a teenage love
that lasted only for 2 years.
But he pined for her all his life,
never quite got over her.
When he finally got to see her
she’d been dead a few years.
He gently placed the flowers
he bought her upon her grave,
and told her he’d always love
her as tears fell from his eyes.
