It's a gold branch on the floor, broken in half,
Or a stain across on the creases of a silk glove.
It's the fabric, tattered by the strong winds
With the wolves howling at night, lost in their cries.
It's a light made from the moon in an open night sky,
And it falls, shattering like thousands of sparkling crystals.
It's the profit, silenced by all that surrounds him,
A story kept away, forever buried in this land.
