Eye of the apple
Rotting to the core
Black desert rose
Withering unsure
Cracks and lines
Corners they flood
Too many times misunderstood
Used to be the star that shined
Stage has left you far behind
Bereft of spirit fleeting glow
Youth now stolen can’t let go
Seeds of new life
So long ago sewn
Grew unwieldy
Left wisdom unknown
Took a wrong turn
Lured by lust
Spread too thin was the fairy dust
Used to be the star that shined
Now you’re not so much inclined
Watch as others take the bait
Youth now stolen can’t fool fate
Rotting to the core
Black desert rose
Withering unsure
Cracks and lines
Corners they flood
Too many times misunderstood
Used to be the star that shined
Stage has left you far behind
Bereft of spirit fleeting glow
Youth now stolen can’t let go
Seeds of new life
So long ago sewn
Grew unwieldy
Left wisdom unknown
Took a wrong turn
Lured by lust
Spread too thin was the fairy dust
Used to be the star that shined
Now you’re not so much inclined
Watch as others take the bait
Youth now stolen can’t fool fate
