*It’s a pale paler heart
There is no reason
To part, Jane Eyre
The proof is plain to see
Would you let her be?
A passionate English Orphan
So paint her white
This very day
Let her know why
We see her this way
Charlotte Bronte
Closer she walks
With Emily and Anne
Closer that
We see where your muse's faired
That magically makes
Us free
Is the paler shade of white for thee?*
