Blue oceans fling polished pearls
Ice frost shards, slicing through the lust
as skies fall to their planets, to dance
The light scatters through on amber
Tiger eyes are watching.
Eagle silhouette, wings in flight
and how the dusk moon is dancing
with her skies, painted with rain
Shattered mirrors of diamond
Lost time and youth’s most sublime
All grief may be forgotten at dusk
where, under the many moons,
slumber is what we do to pass the time.
Gold rush possess the teary eyes
of moonlight madness, now so cold
and in this blue haze, they’ve never shone so bright
like the fairy tales and legends, of young and old
where nymphs and centaurs are drunk on summer wine
blissfully unaware of the sun’s evening glare
Tattered remains of one’s most beloved
Swept out of sight, and always hushed
Her mind is like disturbed waters, droplets
but water leads to meadows of grass, green lush
Where the sands of time are washed away
to blue oceans, fresh water and lime
but we’re too drunk to care on our summer wine
With the celestial moon watching over us
whilst we slice sugary clementines
Lost in the labyrinth, of truth and lies
What can we do? We try and try
and as our time slips, passing us by
And everything we ever had, dwindles to dust
