Purple tears
Dreams wake us up at night
 
 breathing
 
 screaming
 
 filled with fright
 
 what if when the soldier never returns
 
 when the trees bend down
 
 and touch the earth
 
 what then?
 
 giant rivers fill the world
 
 swalloing
 
 dunking
 
 masive swirls
 
 winds are bouncing
 
 running frree
 
 faster faster
 
 carrying a leaf
 
 and poets cry
 
 for their own salvation is all lost
 
 when the choice was made
 
 going gone
 
 sunset screams across the sky
 
 leaving purple tears behind
 
 dark blue crys of pain
 
 yellow lights gold like flame
 
 an orb of light appears in sky
 
 flying higher
 
 higher
 
 lost in fight
 
 in a voice not quite heard
 
 who stands up?
 
 who stands against the world?
 
 who jumps and flutters quite like a bird?
 
 now in one dream, a dozen laughs
 
 will echo
 
 lost
 
 among the dry sand
 
 purple tears
 
 green
 
 yellow lights
 
 gleam
 
 goodnight bird.
 
 goodnight song.
 
 goodnight lovely lovley one.
