It was the kind of night
where the trees
looked like black lace amidst the quiet
In between gray lavender
with a hug of blue
Put on
Another
Pot of tea
It’s the answer
To any problem
Were all passing our time, tap-dancing,
to tell the truth
Maybe if I dance fast enough
I won’t remember what I lost
Sad and ashamed
Maybe if I dance fast enough
I won’t remember what I lost
Sad and ashamed
so ready for my happy ending
Weary of living here with your lies
Talking but
Weary of living here with your lies
Talking but
not saying much
Just a little green
The color when Spring is born
Some rules are bent
These are broken
The color when Spring is born
Some rules are bent
These are broken
The time for poetry
is for the young
Some rules are bent
Some rules are bent
You're fragile
Were all just
mere mortals
things of sky and air
But the bells already
have been rung
and it cannot be unrung
out in the dark
among the stars
You’re eyes are silver a haunting memory
Of something that was good
Breath
Mingles and hangs in the air
