How can he seem to be me?
I need to change him.

Deciduous garden dew

Embers of past love
Soaked in pale memory dust
Where love equals lust.

Beauty is skin deep
The beholder sees farther
But love conquers all.

Behind this iron
Door the sweet scent of freedom
Seeks me - the jail-bird

Of which makes this necklace great...
String it love, make haste!

He tweets a fine haunting tune...
His plea? Release me...
