drowning dreams

By little butterfly

we're calling come here
down where they dance in the water hollows
they will sweep you to carelessness
wrap you in dreams
your land chains will severe, you'll stay there forever

fair dancers gleam and glisten
don't call me, don't beckon, i'll turn and not listen
they trapped me and bound me with weed's
sinking deep in to the water green depths
dont call me i'll not hear

my feet start gliding
out on the green water to where the lillies float
your arms entwine me
come hold me i'm crying
my breath leaves my body


i'm sinking

i'm dying
