So you write, real words, I wonder

For I was once a dreamer

Now just a dream

A drop of perfect reflection

Never what it seems

Cover of the sad face

Wicker of weave

Silence left

Bleeding heart on a sleeve

Watch and wonder

Strut and play

Evergreen

Falls in a forest of gray

 

Oh heart of hearts left praying

Silver on steps left lay

Question perfection

Sun rises in the east

Just another day

 

But into eh hall of living

Footsteps fly

Daddy oh daddy

I am so sad

Why must

You die

 

The river rolls to the valley

The answers set in the sky

We call our self-poets

On pages words cry

 

For I was once a dreamer

Now just a dream

A drop of perfect reflection

Never what it seems

Cover of the sad face

Wicker of weave

Silence left

Bleeding heart on a sleeve

Watch and wonder

Strut and play

Evergreen

Falls in a forest of gray
