A love in verse

2005-12-27

Performed by

Never leave me

You won’t believe me

If you leave me

The sun becomes ink

Grass goes to sand

Proud roses stink

Air will be banned

So never go

But if you stay

Then rivers flow

And fountains play

And our lungs breathe

Our young legs run

A smile will wreathe

The face of the sun

‍

The thoughts that scourge me in the night

Cannot defer the living skies

Of dawn and morning’s hopeful light...

You looking sad across the table

And me wishing I were able

To make some mirth have birth in those blue eyes...
