• Flashes of ebony evergreen
    With lines of old sienna
    The greener dances in the leaves
    With his soft and wild abandon

    Silk of sea green tresses
    Soft and alien caresses
    You are ripped away
    Encased in smothering black feathers

    "Are you hurt?"
    "...No."
    "You're lying."
    Silence.
    "You are dying on the inside. I see it in your eyes."


    Greener sings your lullaby
    That the angel tries to steal
    His dark eyes cry out to you
    Too far away to feel

    Fly away, little beauty
    Stay strong, my tortured dove
    My heart is up in the sky
    Come back to find our love
