Happy Birthday.

Post by ncoard »

Tick, Tick, Tick.
It’s fading, I’m fading.
This is how the poem’s written,
a girl is born, she lives, then she dies.

If I blow out the candles will my heart survive?
You can be honest,
I promise I’ll blow them out anyway.

The flames flicker, there’s not much time left,
but also a whole life worth of moments.

Thank you for posting this!
