Elegy

Lyrics

The pathetic sight of your sunken eyes The light and the dark Of your vallied ribs The angular lines of your hips and waist The skeletal draw Of your temples and cheeks Your breath but a wisp From your string thin lips The acrid stink of your face and mouth Unsound unsure...your shaky legs Just when you're about to Learn to smile again I'm going to be the one to Teach you how to cry
