When Lilies Cry

Your pollen bleeds in blood-red drops With every lonely tear; Although you have companions close, You know that no one’s  near. Isolated in your pain, There’s no one you can trust, And so you sit in summer heat And cry your tears of rust.

Your pollen bleeds in blood-red drops

With every lonely tear;

Although you have companions close,

You know that no one’s  near.

Isolated in your pain,

There’s no one you can trust,

And so you sit in summer heat

And cry your tears of rust.
