Innocent promise
calling for sweet gracefulness
A child's lullaby
Robin Goodfellow Aug 2016
Sing to me a song of fear,
for all the lovers you've held so dear.
You'll listen and watch their fallen tears
and call their names, not knowing they're near.

Sing to me a song of shame,
for all the blissful sins you've named;
wallow in burdens and sorrow and pain
and crimson from which you've carelessly stained.

Sing to me a song of night,
for all the times you've tried to hide
from the truth and reality of all your lies
as you see them now; your angels all die.

Sing to me a song of love,
as you walk away, unscathed from above.
You fly, now free, now white as a dove.
But you smile, and know

you've had enough.

Tenderly calling
the whispers of a lover;
crimson from his heart

Sing me to roses
Red and black upon the vines,
in the autumn night

Hopeless melodies
from an everlasting ball-
he cries in twilight.

Silent petals fall
upon your glassy oceans
those decadent years

Tears fall desperately
trapped in our sweet memories,
and I watch you fade
