Between

Remind me that it's all part of the game
You have to play because you need to live.
But more and more I'm feeling so ashamed,
Because I'm needing love that you can't give.
I watch from sidelines you will never feel
Removing parts and people I can't bear;
To watch them is to reinvent surreal
And reinstate how I'm not welcome there.
I'll sit beside the lake and watch the moon
Fade into the darkest midnight haze,
And reminisce about the summer bloom,
Who wilted in the past year's cold malaise.
We're missing in the breaks between the lines:
All the flower needed -- was love and time.
