White Tree Alley

 
 
Day was Dying to raise another...
But sleep yet haven't won...
"Tell me a story my big brother!"
and so with smile he begun...
 
"Once upon a time...
In the world that rhyme...
In city full of Gray..
Guarding nights of day...
Slept green seas...
Alley of white trees...
Where children of the sun came at night to die...
Where they said their last goodbye...
To white trees with sturdy rope...
They were coming to confess despairfull hope...
 
There then once Crimson Lady came...
Claret lines all from the same...
Mother who lost her child...
Broken while demons went wild...
Still crying her tears of Red Sadness...
Lost in painfull madness...
When she tied her knot...
On sturdy rope She brought...
God danced in the Rain...
But white tree coudn't bear the pain...
Branch made roaring sound...
Lady fell back on ground...
Tree broke it's own arm...
To keep her safe from harm...
Making sure she won't try again...
Or draw another claret line...
He asked Wailing Wind to wind...
With all strenght the Wind could find...
To run throught his Leaves...
To say what the White Tree sees...
 
"Do not cry you   who   lost   your   stars...
White Tree can see    your    scars...
No    Need    to know the names...
Of  pictures drowned in frames..."
 
And ever since, each - every day...
In this city made from shades of grey...
Lady and her Acient friend...
All the time they spend...
All the secrets they ...
And each time she herself from darkness spare...
Everyday missing her misery...
Is the White Trees
Victory..."
 
So now go to sleep...
one day you'll grow old...
And if shall future make you weep...
If world turns Gray and Cold...
Find your Wite Tree Alley...
Inside of that Shadow Valley...
Every  Despair  Holds...
