Eyes of stone and
Eyes of sand watch
The games we play
The sleepless nights
The sultry days
Droplets of time
For your lips
You ease into me
So smooth
A brush of cochineal
A pallet of blue splendor
And I am spent
On the floor I watch
The blades turn
I am your drowsy sacrifice
Another turn for
Your beckoning hand
Eyes of sand watch
The games we play
The sleepless nights
The sultry days
Droplets of time
For your lips
You ease into me
So smooth
A brush of cochineal
A pallet of blue splendor
And I am spent
On the floor I watch
The blades turn
I am your drowsy sacrifice
Another turn for
Your beckoning hand
