Yesterday and Tomorrow

A lily grows

Where dead lay cold

In flowers gold

And decompose.

Young hearts are weak

And never sleep

But always keep

Thoughts they don't speak.

May I get lost

In sparkling eyes;

Another lie,

A precious cost.

The butterflies

Inside of me

Will try to see

The distant sky.
