Blood Soaked Vine
Evening starts to take in the day
Pelicans start to settle aboard
Going scattered along the blues
Eagles widen wings till home
Reaching down to new mistakes
Strangling wings in own disgrace
Tearful blood do they bleed
Wounds invisible that don't exist
Seeing peace in far distance
Holding back to what remains
Grown on wall is blood soaked vine
Scratched up by the ravaged nails
