MEMORY IN THE THORN MIST
Looked through blues mist
Heard the ego of your voice in my dreams
Saw your shadow in our secret places
Your voice caught me
Fire of hate burned like spice tea
Why didn’t I listen to the voices of warning
The snake at the back of your voice so
perfectly disguised
Walked slowly through the rain of my tears
Memories of us were running through my mind
Cut me open without a typhoon warning
The rose-promise in your eyes was full of
shark teeth
Tried to catch the fallen promises
Reached for a Disneyland love
Remember the words you spoke
Your moon-gentle touch caressed my skin
The movie-soft glance in your eyes
If only I could see the twisted lies underneath the
vampire-beauty
You were the only one who never really knew me
You were in a poisonous cocoon
Now, your face is just a memory in the
thorn mist
