Atop this barren hill,
silhouetted against this violet sky of
Cold gray stars;
She smiled
Oh, You're kidding me...
Sweet curvature of neck, sloped shoulder, deliciously bare;
she was not mine to keep
Touch like velvet soaked in wine
Her body moves in curls and slinks
Spins a tale made of lies,
sewn with little bits of truth
She burns me,
Like one tear, from the eye of the sun
I feel myself falling
drifting down
down
down
Into the lap of the sea.
Then, finally-
your heart is scattered on the ground...
