Lily Snow

Mist shrouded lilies in the darkness Glistening off the new fallen snow. Torrents of emotions unharnessed Beneath the mother moons glow. Lids of diamonds blink lazily Carrying lashes of golden water. Over sapphire skies of Hazel A velvet cheeked lily martyr. Offering the alabaster fingers Of the impossible American dream. Mending the jaded hopes that lingered Everything is more than what it seems. Sturdy stems cut through the ice Crystalline forests of milk and sugar. Teach you never to think twice Not to judge with haste or vulgar. As your vision dances across ebony Tresses of the moon light you seek. Eyes that no longer question me Laughter the only words your lips speak.
