The key that leads nowhere

The key that leads nowhere
The flowers in her hair
The single bloom in winter
The smile I once knew

Wrapped in a memory
Put on a shelf
I've forgotten my purpose
I'm somebody else
I've spent too much time
Being alone
I've put away sanity
I never atoned
Sombody somewhere
They said that they cared
I should have known better
You would have been spared

The door left open
The stems without bloom
The snows cover all
The nothingness I know
