|
helena's hollow |
|
she lives in a sail |
|
drift on a promise |
|
of delicate details |
|
her ark is a shipwrecked |
|
touch 'til she breathes |
|
love's whisper passing |
|
& laying down reeds |
|
caroline the shy girl |
|
made only of air |
|
breathlessly singing |
|
on a wing & a prayer |
|
secrets that shadow |
|
lie in the deep |
|
carried along |
|
& laid down to sleep |
|
these winds |
|
& cold, dark rain |
|
blows, breaks |
|
& remains |
|
josephine's beauty |
|
she hides with a veil |
|
speaks reassuring |
|
but her voice is frail |
|
dancing covertly |
|
afraid we might fall |
|
sweep me away |
|
& feel nothing at all |
|
these winds |
|
& cold, dark rain |
|
blows, breaks |
|
& remains |
