Ugly bird, you see, I'm too perceptive for these games, you Seek. I can tell in your eyes, within my demons' dream, That you are many things to many people, A wish, a woman, a genie, a lover, a slave, And nothing ever to be possessed or, To have value, nay, only fleeting, like the wind, void of essence, and so I made a decision, long ago, To let your wind swirl around mine, Coming and going like nature doth please, Uncaringly gazing into a cruel, Empty world. Fault nothing of yourself, Just my eyes that are seeing, My mind that is thinking, And my heart that has long since, Stopped beating.
