Her Name

She colored my eyes red She's broken, filled with dread She looked into my eyes Through glass that made a disguise And cried me a solemn lullaby When I said hello she said goodbye She took my hand in hers She healed the scars of spurs She held onto me, her song Of loneliness, far too long I look into those eyes And see through the red disguise See through the shattered glass Through the blubbered mass She colored my eyes red Her soul striving, her body dead But living all the same? Confusion is her name

Ah, you have described her well! I love the passion of your verse as you weave the way to the name of this oft times, thief of sanity. Cynthia
