I've got a primrose in my pocket,
And a head full of dreams,
Yet my heart is full of sorrow,
And it's bursting at the seams,
There's a crystal rose pinned to my chest,
Right above my heart,
Hiding it from people's view,
Yet tearing it apart,
A daisy entwined in my hair,
A moment of being still,
Too many times I've forgotten,
And now I never will.

(from Ode to Melancholy). Red rose. Black as midnight. Shall you oppose. With thy love I sail feather light. Red rose. Who art thou. I mean not impose. I only mean to love thee true. Red rose.
Apples on a tree, Can't you see, What this friendship means to me. Pears in a pie, My oh my, This bad weather makes me sigh. Lemons and limes, Such hard times, Everyone toeing the line.
To produce nothing but withdrawn faith,. On that once wild, now withered day. Allows us time,. So sweet, so true, so unbelieving. What have we survived, conquered and ultimately overcome.
Ah, the sky She waits for me Despite the cold The malice The you.
Grains of corals And rock adrift, As seasons change In raging waves. Memories flow Tunefully with The gushing stream; Sharp yet agitating, Barely consoling, Rousing the weary soul.
Cloud over a day. Hiding the light. Invoking the rain. Awaiting storms. Reforming the dawn. Inviting the grey. One sideways glance. Erases the day. Retrospective. My heart selective. Self reliance.
And it's just one of those nights. Where your mind is as cloudy as the night sky. And your thoughts are louder than your mouth. Where there's too many emotions running through your veins.
A million drops fall from the sky. Some glitter green. While others are purple. Or violet in sheen. A drop of crystal blue. May be regretful and sad. Just as a drop of orange.
