Reflective sparkling delight.
Beautiful, mysterious. Just the sight
Sunlit patterns across the wall:
Rainbow light-glow waterfall.
Cupped between tentative fingers.
Breathlessness as beauty lingers.
A prize a treasure a reason,
For me to give. A fleeting love season…
Fragile and transparent, its depths are hidden.
Obscure, obsolete and forbidden.
Crystal heart must I let you go?
My fragile treasure! My life blood’s flow.
A sunlit gift I never wanted to give
Without your flickering light, how can I live?
A crystal heart must shatter
But this is not the matter
For the shards sparkle, a different brilliance
A new jewel: the tears cried since
The mystery of the crystal heart?
Once given you must forever be apart…
