I am walking with my younger brother,
Through a forest
While I describe to him a mysterious girl.
"There's this girl"
"A girl?"
"Yes a girl.
She sits atop the tree tops
Her golden hair rests on her shoulders
And flow gently down her breasts and back
Her blue eyes are like the sea
Such a pretty blue
Any boy that looks inside them will get lost
And slowly drown deeper
And deeper
Into a sea of love.
She moves so gracefully
Like that of an angel gliding across a dance floor
When she talks, the ivory green leaves
Tremble at the sound of her sweet sweet voice.
They say her voice is as warm as toast
And sweet as the honey on the toast.
A beautiful creature, they call her
But not."
"A beautiful creature but not?"
"Yes, a beautiful creature but not.
She is the most gorgeous women that ever lived
But she never smiles. Not once, not twice, not ever.
She cries and cries.
Her silver tears feeds the thirsty grass that lies beneath her.
The trees sway back and forth to the sounds of the
Heart-breaking harmony of her sobs.
The wind whistles softly,
As if it tries to cheer her up
When birds fly by, they stop and listen.
They listen to her pain, and watch her with great sorrow."
There is the sound of a painful cry,
My brother and I looked up to see the women
Fall rapidly from a tree branch,
When she hit the ground, not a single moan came from her precious lips.
It was the most silent fall in all of history.
Maybe even the first silent fall in all of history
She lay dead on her back right in front of us
Wrapped inside her fragile little hands is a knife
A knife that was in the center of her chest.
Dark red blood began to soak her clothes
And drench the ground around her
"A beautiful creature but not."
