The Sweetest Thing

A crescent moon.

A fair shining face of desire.

Desire for innocence...

Playfulness the child of light.

A happy boy my happy love.

Stolen by vain glory.

Lovely William lovely boy.

I thought I couldn't hold you.

Wake up wiping all your tears away.

With a hushabye tune..

Of reassurance that I'm not going to leave.

Until I have to, but by the dawn

The window creaks and shutters.

As the winter winds breeze through;

Holding tight,

The endless nights.

My little boy blue...

Baby blue where are you?

William darling who?

My little boy blue...

Raging with the moon.

How sweet can anger be...
