BLACKBIRD



You came to me in the dream-time,
smiling with your blackbird eyes,
my lost love, and you asked me

Will you come back?
Yes.
Will you stay?
Yes.
Forever?
Yes.

It is the question I was waiting for,
back then,
the promise you could never make,
with so many other
beautiful birds
in the sky.

But in the dream-time, 
now that we are old
and silver-haired,
in the dream-time
you came back to me,
smiling with your blackbird eyes.
