Steps Fall Silent

Faces red as the roses fall; we catch the rainbow where the rivers do glow! Thorns peel the skin of hearts! Wrens sing as the leaves spoil; we catch the wind where the boughs do grow! Feathers yearn for weight in dreams! Souls collide as steps fall silent; we catch the paths where the maps do owe! Fickle lights in shadows of eternity! Dreams linger as nights stand still; we catch the anchor where the ships do flow ...
