she's hiding in the willow grove
between where yesterday dies and today fades
moon kissed lips moving in soundless songs
slipping through the rows following nightingales
trailing past smiles that fall away in feathers
she's only beautiful when she’s breaking slowly
~+~
she hums in forgotten melodies
eyes once full of moonflowers and amber
jasmine lashes whispering decadence
as lips blew honeyed kisses to the stars
it's so easy to fall into illusions arms
to sway in the echo of passions sweet
~+~
she’s wandering through caressing branches
leaves silvered and whispering in heartbeats
snowflake stirrings across sleeping gasps
she bleeds harmony and bliss once shining
ruby euphoria pearls dripping from silent sighs
soft dreaming falling on long dead roses
~+~
she’s curled up in the willow grove
and the moon shrouds her shattering
