As green as her eyes

As green as her eyes

A Poem by black.butterfly
"

Death and rebirth

"

Her pale face glares as a moon
drowning in a black ink ocean.
The stars in her green eyes are dying out soon,
quitely, still in motion.

Under the green grassfield likewise;
flows her hair---the color of the sand.
Her breath yields to the skies,
whereas the earth holds her hand.

Even in eternal slumber, she smiles;
as her lips are roses filling the world,
wide--extended for miles,
cherishing the gift of the lord.

i really like the tone of this poem, its Fantastical yet honest and real to me, not too overly serence ( if there can be such a thing!)

Gently beautiful and engaging, the music adds a longing mournful feel. Nice addition.

The music really did wonders on setting the tone of this piece which I found to be hypnotic. Not a lot of writers can put so much in such a small piece, but you made it feel alive, massive, and without equal. Great work.
