The woman of green Tunic and eyes Stared longingly across The sea...Although She'd not have admitted it. Claiming solitude was her way, She gathered her spear And retreated to her hut... Alone. Why is alone such a bitter-tasting word? She wondered. Solitude was prettier. Though she was no sucker for "pretties"... At least... She'd not have admitted it. The woman of green, A star... Seemingly so close to the others From afar Yet too far to touch To converse Too far for someone to Break down her walls Tear down her guards And just Love 'er. And the woman of green Stumbled to bed Feigning exhaustion. This lonely old island was Getting exhausting Mentally depressive... Yet, she'd not have admitted it. No. Never admit it. Content and independent In all her quiet solitude... She was happy... At least...That's what she... Said. I do not know whether I was then a man dreaming I was a butterfly, or whether I am now a butterfly dreaming I am a man. |
