It Is Dark Inside
The one who giggles with you
That one who is the lily of lilies
The one who praises you dearly
And calls you "darling, sweet-heart"
You see the external landscape
Lit and as bright as morning star
But the heart surely you know not
It is dark inside, full of red liver of lies
That is the one who is no friend
Who may take your lost rib away
That is the dramatic chameleon
Ready to show you the setting sun
Great ones have ridden the winds
Aborted dreams lie in graveyards
Due to dark malicious four chambers
Which no one can fathom precisely
