The Scarecrow

Autumn

It took heart to stay and share a life
In return i pledged to keep an eye
On the ravens on the wire
On the serpents in the mire

We were lovers you and i
We loved and time went by
Eyes are beads and feet are clay
You would not be scared away

Fireflies and satellites
In the dead of night
When you warned me
"there's a snake nearby."
Arms like sticks and hands of hay
Failed us when you slipped away

Now i'm sad to be alive
And i urge the sands of time
Send your last remaining grains
Bleeding from my strawy veins
