She looks at you
With those deep brown eyes
Asking a silent question
Wanting no lies

My heart feels so empty inside
Had to run away to my family

its made of silk and ribbon soft as milk and honey  
it shimmers and sparkles with tumultuous light,    
just like a firefly's glow, in the middle of the night ...

Who is that looking at me
Waiting for me to say
"Good Morning Tilly "
So that she can reply

By snuggling up against me
Paws around my neck
Plants a lick upon my face
Sighs, and goes to sleep.

There she would stay if i let her
Til when you need to move
You...

One tooth Tilly was his name
Women wished that he’d been tame
He wore a light pink suit
With his high-top boot
His daily life was spitting game
