sepia toned flowers wilting away.
as love left her crying, falling to her knee's.
sepia toned flowers left away .
left at her door step, by past lovers,
she leaves them dying like her heart alone.
sepia toned flowers fly away.
like her tears in puddles,
and her beating heart ending,
her memories fading.
like sepia toned flowers wilting away.
SPANISH TRANSLATION
la sepia entonó las flores que se marchitaban lejos.
como amor dejado su griterío, bajando a su knee' s.
la sepia entonó las flores dejadas ausentes.
izquierda en su paso de la puerta,
cerca amantes del pasado,
ella los deja que mueren como su corazón solamente.
la sepia entonó las flores se va volando.
como sus rasgones en charcos,
y su conclusión de derrota del corazón,
su descoloramiento de las memorias.
como la sepia entonada flores que se marchitan lejos.

You didn't have to provide a Spanish translation (English is my first language) but it's cool that you did
lthough, since you probably used a translator, there are some weird errors.
The word for knee in Spanish is rodilla, if you would like to know the other errors just let me know.
Thanks for this entry, the whole sepia-tone imagery is really nice.

the whole idea of flowers in sepia tones is so unique... we normally associate sepia with old pictures/ memories. i've never seen it used in the context of flowers but it makes for a great image.
