Dear Lilly,
So majestic and bright.
Your as white and pure as the midnight moonlight.
Dear Lilly,
You are a child.
Dear Lily, laughing in the wind
My smile is forever pinned,
How do you leave sappy smiles
On faces ever where you're known?
Please tell me, how to make my beauty shown?
Dear lily, stop my gaze,
No! Lilly please don't fade,
Lilly, don't turn to black,.
Oh dear Lilly, please come back
...
Dear Lilly, faded...
Oh Lilly dried...
Dear Lilly didn't deserve to die.
My Lilly no longer speaks,
Dear Lilly died off so sweet,
Deceased Lilly, hear me through...
You made me strong,
I'm no longer blue.
