He said close your eyes
Follow me girl
Into the forest we walk
Blind folded my love
Eyes wide open -
Laundry hanging on the line
Paper clipped heart shapes made of twine
Tell me Mr sandman , I write fairy tales in sand , washed away by the hands
Of the unforgiving tide -
Follow me he says -
He laughs -
The forest is cold -
The crows are screaming
I ask,"have you heard a word I said?"
The sun is setting
The path is narrowing ,
You hold my hand and whisper -
Trust me -
I see him , leaving
And I see him leaving too -
I remember their suit cases were packed long before you got here .
And I'm peeking through these cracks
And I let go of your hand
Because your fingers
Are their fingers
And I'm packed
The train is waiting you see
It's always waiting
Paper mache heart
Perfectly clipped to your hand
In place where I once stood
Tell me Mr sandman ,
How do I write fairy tales
In pen ?
With blind fold on
Eyes closed
