In my green mind's eye
theres mountains of white
no sorrow, no deception, no lie,
No tongue with poison spite.
Theres meadows of flowers,
Delicate petals of purest blue ,
That grow and die among the hours,
Then within seconds grow and renew.
Tropical rivers, darting fish below,
Among grasses as tall as I,
Green that dances and twirls just so,
So that each movement gives a whisper and sigh.
Everything can happen in my head,
I can see everything and dream about my life,
I can see my life, I can see what I said,
I can see the end of the world- such strife.

Then why is all I see you and me?
I close my eyes and see your funny smile,
I can hear your voice saying 'we can't agree'
And you telling me I'd better be worthwhile.
I can see your eyes blue as sin and sorrow,
Hair like gold, shines like the sleeping sun,
I have to tell myself thats theres always tomorrow,
Another day to finish what was begun.

I know why all I see is you.
I just can't admit it yet.
But whenever the thought touches my lips.
I bite my tongue.
To stop myself from telling you.













And to stop myself from smiling.
