Cherry Blossom Heart

THE moon slid slowly from the light to slumber in the crepuscular shroud An illuminated universe lies in the silver light’s glow The mighty golden note slumbering in a valley of undying silence The distant crimson light’s whisper Causing butterflies in its wake The song of the moon played so sweet as the golden sun faded behind Now hear the bitter mocking warble of the bitter hermit’s chant and ghosts watch me leave you further behind As the dirt drips down bedding your heavy box the front of your funeral dress all shadowy lined And droning iridescent crickets throb in time within your beatless heart Cry, Pink White Cry, Pink White Cry, Pink White Like a needle in the pinball machine you don’t know what you got till it’s gone If you’re the only one to hold me in your arms Baby please don’t make me cry Say it with me now Cry, Pink White Cry, Pink White Cry, Pink White My Cherry Blossom Heart :: 07.27.2022 ::
