Cover me up
Plaster my face with leaves
Cover my closed eyes
With two round roses
Smother me so I'm swimming in leaves and dirt.
It's in my bones
It's in my blood
My body leaks love.
I am a soft shell so
This is love
When you cover me up
With leaves
Protect me from the world
Put me to sleep
Rest my eyes under
Red roses
Smother me so I'm bathing
In leaves and dirt
So my heart can be be still
and silent with the earth.
