She plays and radiates
Stripped down to size
The energy of all the eulogys
Fine tune my mind
Sinking feelings rise
Like tidal waves
Rolling in to soak my clothes
But I leave high and dry
Playing it all the time
Within my mind's eye
My heart penetrates all
The being of light
The being of darkness
All and all
In great fullness
Covered in satin sheets
She plays and radiates
The darkness and it's obsession
My light clothes her feet
And twelve stars and Gods
Know what to do
But no one else does
