Lilies floating down the river

Desperately running away

From this cruel reality

Where all they do is decay

 


A long difficult journey

Through the dead of night

Hoping they will arrive somewhere safe

Someplace where they’ll be alright

 


Lilies breathing in

Salty water filling their lungs

Finally they have arrived

Where young is old and old is young
