The Green Man

There once was a lad
A good lad, a fine lad
There once was a lad
Whose name is unknown

There once was a lad
A bright lad, a smart lad
Who said to his ma
The world I must roam

And they say that his skin was green
And they say he was as tall as the trees
And they say that his voice was like mountains colliding

But what do we know?

It is true that his skin was green in the Spring
And in Autumn as dark as the bark of an evergreen tree
And his voice is like wind through the willows

And where ere he walked
The world took on color
And where ere he went
The flowers took hold

When his feet hit the ground
The grass burst up from the earth
And where ere he tread
The green things would grow

And they say that he turns the leaves
And they say he brings all nature sweet dreams
And they say that he knows every tree in the forest

But where does he go
When it starts to snow?

It is true when the world is covered in white
He will wander among us to learn of our strange walled-in ways
For in winter he looks like the Northmen

So you'd never know

It Is Written On My Body

I want to feel your touch, your lust, your need
A dream within a dream within a dream
I want to captivate and capture you
Intoxicate your senses one by one
To hold you close as we entwine again
Become a sentient part of me this night
This moment wrapped up in ecstatic bliss
So hold me, kiss me, love me, fuck me ...please?
I promise that I'll make it worth your while.

Deep Smit

Why isn't it obscene when you visit in my dreams?
It's so sweet and darling. Delicate.
Adorkable.
Divine.
When I wake I am consumed with fantasies of having you.
Daydreams where I pounce and take and give and give and give and take.

Journey

The stars will not align
Seasons charted out of turn
The steps are not yet written
As I boldly grace the floor
With what strength I have I'll fake it
Buy the time to find my way
Though the road I walk is endless I will walk it til my end

Road of Sorrows

Take me down my road of sorrows
And I will tarry there
Beware of the spark that bursts into flame
For that spark lives in me

I will be caught and wrapped up in a false world
I'll dance a dance that no one can stop
Pointed bare toes against cold, cold white marble
And the velvet will sing as it brushes the floor

Take me down my road of sorrows
And I will tarry there
Beware of the spark that bursts into flame
For that spark lives in me

Diminutive fingers all covered in lace
Pull hard at the gates of a garden quite fair
Rows upon rows of the rarest of flowers
But alas, the most precious is withered and dead

Siren's Song

Hail ye men who've traveled so far
Come rest with me here
And I'll sing you a song
For the breeze is so cold
But my body so warm
Am I not fair?
Can you say it's not so?

I've pale star-kissed skin
Raven hair black as pitch
The most delicate poise
That you ever did see
Though pink and bright
There is death on my lips
Though I smile as sweet
As a wee infant child

Set sail for my island
Safe haven, sweet home
Come to me, darling
My soul aches and burns
Wrap me in your arms
And I'll be your one love
Forever t'will be
And not one day less

Steer straight and true
Do not glance to the shore
Where the waves crash and spray
And the sea kicks up foam
When the prow hits the crags
Man and vessel will crack
And I'll laugh as I bury you
Under the waves

Follow Me

Come find me in the silence
In the world behind my eyes
I see through her disguise
I can hear her wordless cries

I can feel it hit the mark
Like a whisper in the dark
Like an arrow through my heart
Come follow me

Come follow me
Where none may go
To a place where I've decided you belong
Come wrap me in your heart
And it will be your home
Come follow me
Come follow me home

The winds are always changing
Suns will rise and stars will fall
Will you stay to see it all
Do you dare to scale these walls

I can feel her hesitate
Like the moment came too late
Like a feather bound to fate
Come follow me

Her voice is in the Summer
I can hear it on the breeze
Drifting gently through the trees
Laughing, catch me if you please

I can feel my heart take flight
Like a blaze cuts through the night
Like winged things drawn towards the light
Come follow me
