Their settled dust, a gentle sand

I see black and blue ivy covering her skin.

 

While  Shards of wet grass start to slowly sink within

 

She begins to wonder why she ever loved this place

 

But soon you'll seek to realize undying love and endless faith

 

Branches will stream together, forming light beyond belief

 

As strands of light begin to fall filling skies with shades of pink

 

She lets her tears burn the sheer surface of her skin

 

Even though she's found her love, her weak heart is wearing thin.

 

She believes he's perfect with his skin a tint of gold

 

With his words a perfect song she willl listen to what she's told

 

The songs in which they sang were the lyrics of their life

 

She wants to be his heart and forever be his wife

 

They now lie together; their dust a gentle sand

 

Even though their hearts are stagnant, she still holds her lovers hand.
