SandinaA Poem by Mavis BardOnly in a lie.Moroccan lips are blazing In the fiery sky Mouth is dry Hands are splitting Her heavy skin burns into my eyes Don’t look away, but Don’t stare into her eye Sandina Oh, Sandina Whisper me lullabies Out within the distance Her hips dance the waves Shimmering blue oasis Spurs the empty thought That I was once her slave Raging a desert cry Why won’t you go and die Sandina Oh, Sandina Why won’t you go and die My eyes have no real focus My thoughts soon drift away The two of us, girl Kiss with freedom To the silent song That will send us to our grave The ending time is nigh Only in a lie Sandina Oh, Sandina We only live a lie © 2011 Mavis Bard |
