                     Loving did wound you;
                     but leaving did bleed;
                     how hurtful was truth;
                     to bloom out new seed,
                     but pain's been tattooed;
                     you'll never be freed;
                     like rainbow's all blue;
                     on summer's lone heat,
                     now tears on my stew;
                     I'll never sip clean;
                     as if pains grew new
                     and bleeding clots clear;
                     for freedom pursues
                     no wanted bright peace;
                     but flashbacks into
                     your dimmed-light night dreams.
