A Paradelle of Love
By Linda E. Newman
Tattered tapestries, remnants of forgotten dreams,
Tattered tapestries, remnants of forgotten dreams
Blackened by the unforgiving fire of love,
Blackened by the unforgiving fire of love;
Blackened by the fire, tattered remnants of
Forgotten tapestries, unforgiving dreams of love.
I douse Love's flames with crystal tears,
I douse Love's flames with crystal tears,
Pieces of my broken heart, shattered souvenirs,
Pieces of my broken heart, shattered souvenirs;
Flames of my heart I douse with tears;
Love's shattered crystal pieces, broken souvenirs.
All that remain are charred moonbeams,
All that remain are charred moonbeams
And sooty ashes of now-dead dreams,
And sooty ashes of now-dead dreams;
Sooty and charred, now-dead moonbeams,
Ashes are all that remain of dreams.
With tears of love I douse the flames,
Charred remnants of ashes all that remain,
Dreams are forgotten, fire blackened and tattered,
Pieces of my unforgiving heart, shattered
By broken souvenirs of crystal moonbeams,
Love's sooty tapestries' now-dead dreams.
