dear delilah








Fathers, be good to your daughters; daughters will love like you do.

you are the strength and the weight of her world

Stream her with roses and daisies, dear mother,
let all that she speak be all that that she hears.
For no higher, no higher let her forehead doth grow;
and so dote, dote my mother, my mother so dear
and let her run free with a conscience so clear

verse&stanza

And oh, how bright my eyes will be before the day will come to halt.
because you will never be the one you were before I came along.
So sing that song so lonely and defouled, sing to the blood of joy -
dull like sunburnt lips; crisp like words on the knife's sharp edge,
to spite the lover's un-intention.



So cry from the soul, you lost and reproached, cry to the heaven's singing.
And feel the pain of the gravel on sole, shining is the stained and bleeding.
I'll hold your hand, that's all I'll do, too harsh is the sun's prior beating -
and the earth is left with oudor of rot; but still I'll calm your being.
I'll rest my face upon your chest, and wish for more than asked.
I'll break the currents of the wind to reach for nature's lust
so that you, my darl, shall fall on grass, no more on rocks you thread,
no more of wandering off to sea, for your hunger shall be fed.



O, broken is the glass in which I lay my left and right.
you'll know before the day,
you'll know,
you'll know.

he told me that I've done alright
and kissed me till the morning light
