An orange sun shimmering with heat Blankets its cloud all over our heads Your eyes fill with wonder and stars Gazing at the trees unevenly spread We talk of fantasies and breathless sighs And romance we have never known While all the butterflies vibrate with ecstasy And the sky, into our heads, is sewn
Little crystals melt on our tongues Honey dripped bees infect our sights Faintly, on the other side of the desert Our threat awaits, patient as night Orange sun begins to paint the world As leaves fall like words murmured Buzzing hummingbirds cry out in alarm And the edge of our vision is blurred
