Blood Berries
Silent flower in the orchid dark
Pulls essential elements apart
Needle through the tongue
Inclement heart
Dismember her life spark
Red berries are my poison
I heard the birds made me eat them
But I sing the song of a dissident
I see how the red river flows
Silent child hanging from my lip
I’m begging you to open the gate
Please turn and face me
I am so lonely
Red berries are your poison
I heard the birds made you eat them
But I hear the song of a dissident
I see how the red river flows
See how the red river flows
