Woman of tears
Dragged down deep
Torn from your plans
Falling to endless sleep

Woman of tears
You fill souls
Sisters of trees
Followers of sand

No control my dear
No little precious creations
All is bland
Sand, gritty, dust
Sparkling in the windlight

Sad girls
In my dream
You painted my eyes
My face with your tears

Sea tears
Toes playing on
the moonlit sand
Stretching up
Raising our hands
Salutation to the shimmering sea
Moon light ladies
Salty Ocean
Darkness deep
