Love

In the earth somethings turning

something squirming, something yearning

In the earth a dream is burning

wishing so for cleansing rain



It is love so undying

A love that's sick of lying

Upon the wind you hear it sighing

As it whispers out my name



It wants to crawl out in the daylight

Stretching out, standing upright

Shake free the shroud of cold spite

Let it clatter like a chain



Upon its face a star-crossed smile

And yet its been there all the while

As long and ancient as the Nile

Deadly as its flooded plains
