Elderflowers

Time crept and killed us

Amongst the bushes of elderflowers that grew

And they only did this painfully

Because we're young
And it's easy for a flower to look away

Maybe because in their time

They could manage to grow

And never smouldered

Or struggle to bloom

No one ever gave up on them

Or cut off their ends, means or life support

I do not know what any of this is but it came to me

Perhaps for a reason perhaps not

Time will tell

When its not smouldering near bushes

Or creeping up on innocent minds
