And She Vows to Never Let Me Go

White lilies
I've held too long
Shaking hands
And sat too long

Lie to me
And I'd lap it up like nectar
Your words are soft and addictive
Like the sigh in your breath

To dream, to sleep
To sleep, to die
To die, to lie
Beneath the ground, where one cannot

I'm here,
Drinking up the sunlight
Like wine
You look at me

    Smiling a BIG smile!

    Your poem is a delight and a trip into the strange place where everything quirky shakes itself up and flings itself around and comes down just brilliant! COOLNESS! lol hehe
