Birthstones In the Garden
Serene turns to bloody
lullaby whipped to scream.
If you've ever watched your mother die,
you'll know exactly what I mean.
Good times are soon forgotten
friends just drift away
death roosts in the brain forever
I guess we're born that way.
Who is this diadem
that gives, then steals away
puts birthstones in our garden
then swiftly cuts it all away.
