Write me a royal-blue parchment poem

Draw me a royal-blue lady like me

Draw me a smile

That's a lot like my own

And make my eyes flowers

And make my mind see

I will weave melodies only for you

And color them silver and saffron and blue



Build me a window to watch everything

Leave it unshuttered so nothing slips by

No season, no sorrow, no wonderful thing

No raspberry, strawberry sun in the sky

I will bring music and marsipan bars

And live deep inside you

Wherever you are



Teach me the ways of the Gemini twin

Show me the love that he says without words

Bring me his laughter again and again

The silence is singing, the quiet is heard

I will find harmonies waiting unsung

With two souls to sing them

Where once there was one
