Tan Gentle

She lies, tan gentle lines and curves so sharp
she pairs her heart horizontal to zero 
But she can't ignore the signs anymore
For a symptom hopes a cure will appear
Strum soft sweet chords on wire lyre strings, we come
Together to throw arc shadows on walls

Simplistically intense! Such spoken volumes expressed in those moments of release...hoping the pain will go away. Incredible.
