			"Sand"

And it seemed  
beauty possessed her  
Took her out dancing  
making love in the sand  
I saw all of it  
the earth in the water  
Salt on her blade  
as she pushed the knife in  
And deeper, deeper  
she fell down  
Inside the waves  
I'd swear she's drowning  
Underneath the water  
she's writing in the sand  
And hoping fervently  
for the faeries to come  
Taking her away  
the skies are falling  
Lighting like fires  
upon her candlesticks  
And I am dreaming  
hoping never to wake up  
Until the silence  
has enveloped my soul
