Not Enough Leaves

Just as spring arises from the last vestiges of winter
And Her rebirth begins
I long for our love to rekindle and ignite
That which has laid dormant for too long
If each blossoming Sunflower could fill your heart with love
And every new leaf could cast a shadow over ever wrong
I've done, I would wish for an overflowing bed of Sunflowers
And for an endless grove of Oaks
In hope that one day you could again love me
If each fresh blade of grass were another day with you
And if at every dusk, when the sun sinks just a little bit slower
low the horizon, could extend those days just a little bit longer
Then I would wish for boundless fields of grass
And for every day to rise in late June
If only your love could change like the seasons
Than maybe your trust could explain a reason
to love me.
