Purple Lullabies

by elise   Dec 29, 2004


The snow swirls on a winter's night,
the stars flash in the eyes,
of society itself,
through this stream of endless purple lullabies.

The thoughts wander wearily,
soaring to the deep blue skies,
the streams rush through the trenches,
of deep and sorrowed purple lullabies.

The hearts of care-free children,
through the message that she cries,
cannot erase the painful stare,
of purple lullabies.

Everybody seems alone,
lost in a world of death and lies,
they scream out desperatly,
but no one hears their purple lullabies.

    I absolutly love the line, "purple lullabys" I think that is so lovely. And I love how you portrayed the emotion in depth in each stance to a degree that makes the main subject appreciated. I also love how you defined the purple lullabys, as a beautiful yet tragic and horrifying thing to hear. Beautiful job, loved the symbolism
