Daises Wilt In the Shadows of Eve

Daisy of the darkened night

Spirits lifted by the day

But to her dismay  

Her petals wilt

Into a tight 

Corner of deep thoughts

 

The world says she is nothing

And worthless to all

Theses words to you maybe small

But to her they crawl in her mind

And makes a high pitched sound like a telephone ring

That stops and goes and breaks apart

 

When the rain falls she hears every drop

And her mind just can not take the sound

Going round and around

In her trembling head

She tells herself to stop

And try to be sane

 

But when she is alone

She whispers a silent tune 

About the goddess of the moon

And Jupiter and Juana 

Because there love has been stone-

D. Of lying and sinning

 

Her life seems to weep

When all time passes

Her thinking of love but the steps of people harasses 

Her to sleep and she thinks of life in dreadful way

But when she is asleep

She dreams of a Hero

 

And this Hero in her dreams

Saves her in her doubt

And gets her on the right rout

To a place where milk and honey lies

And the seams

Of dresses are made of gold

 

The Heros words 

Were charming and kind

And the words to describe them are hard to find
