The Flowers

I received the most unexpected text message the other day.

"The flowers you gave me are rotting
And still I refuse to throw them away
Some of the bulbs never opened quite fully
They might so I'm waiting and staying awake"
- Regina Spektor

A blast from my past has recently made an attempt to come back into my life. As much as I have avoided this individual, I can't help but be curious.

What has he been up to?
What is he like now?
Will I be able to trust him again?

Only time and a visit will tell...
