It bleeds

By Jonas Robinson

In muddy sands
Gray as Winter skies
Yet, with a warm breeze
A cigarette on the beech

Though, mermaid as you come
In wet sands and morning gleam
Our sunrise doth bleed

It bleeds - It bleeds
And with every angel laughing
Every ghost awaiting
Even peaceful nudity
It bleeds - It bleeds

It gets colder, and misty
Every humid molecule
Burns this city we once planned
And it bleeds - It bleeds
It bleeds out to the seas

    Ashes to ashes, dust to dust, and salt to salt perhaps. Like the time doth bleed away until only the pale husks of memories remain. Cheers my friend and you have expertly combined nature with humanity here. Cheers! - Dan
