- Future X -

     My
     broken
     heart you left.
     Powerless hands
     confused - stupefied.
     Fleeting muffled music
     no cotton gloves wipe my tears.
     Scribbling on the sky the message; 
     You are the precious star I gaze at.
     Swirling lone in agony and sorrow.

     Pay for driving in the wrong direction,
     loaded with stinging nettles and weeds
     Naked beneath the open sky
     Bless the fool, speak not in tongues
     On unscrupulous feet
     no fire of passion
     or soft feathers.
     Be careful
     with my
     heart
