don’t cry
lick da dust off da floor
broken shadows at da door
sugar n spice hv thrown da dice
n da writing’s faded from da wall
bloodstains embedded
in warm feather blankets
tears set in gold
for grand wedding banquets
fight da good fight of faith?
run da good race to da end?
snakes around her bare naked waist
she’s too damn tired to stand
send her an angel
to stroke her head
soft silken tresses
sad lonely bed
nightingale singing
solitude’s song
2 in the morning
it wont be long
rockabye baby
close ur eyes
be brave
dont cry
