Crimson Tears
Unblemished and unmarred
 The frosty forest sleeps
 A single darling dove
 Spreads her feathered arms
 
 A sudden breeze 
 And a clumsy flutter
 Becomes the birth of flight
 
 On new wings she soars
 Till a black and silver fox
 Calls from below
 
 He lures her from above
 In the dawn of night
 And the simple little dove
 A fire she does ignite
 
 But when the morning comes
 He has left her side
 A shattered and a mangled heart
 Wherein he still resides
 
 A dove no longer white
 Flies through forest charred and burned
 Till a black and silver fox
 From behind implores
 
 He whispers words of love
 To her desperate heart
 He manipulates her feelings
 And together they depart
 
 A vow centuries old 
 A golden ball and chain
 She wears a lily gown
 With a silver train
 
 He became her shackles
 Regret showed only mirrors
 Pain was everlasting
 And her heart wept crimson tears
