That beautiful face,
was a flower in vase

Beautiful to behold,

A tear that never fell
forever calling her eye its cell
a smile that before its bloom died
the lowered eyelids of a shy bride
...

There is no light,

No moon, no stars- bright

That poor heart bled love

Like a bleeding dove

Warmth dying as I see them pour,

I have wandered the deserts,
flown over the seas

He grew up hiding his fears
because he was a man
