Christian Joseph - Wildflower

Staring at those shattered pieces
Reflections used to hold
Silence broken by the chords
Of a soul and all it pours
Longs for something greater than
The whiskey on his breath
Blood runs down his knuckles and the palm that holds the grip
The sun will set and rise again
As the day is made anew
Can't replace that thought and memory
Of a beaten battered view
Young man hands this wildflower
Crushes as he tears
A single petal, a tear of dew from the stalk that falls from his
The man throws down his bottle as he
Can't take any more
Makes his way across the oak wood
To the cabinet by the door
Takes his piece and carves the name in lead
For whom it may concern
Heads down to the field where the young man takes his turn
Takes his turn
Blackened steel and the young mans temple
Held each other close
Didn't move his mouth
Let the trigger speak the words
