Suddenly all the magic was over
_____
And in our cramped little house
_____
There's no charm and there's space to spare
_____
I'm left over in the upstairs place with no fan
_____
Are you gonna say our prayers didn't reach the sky?
_____
Heart that still comes to ask me what
_____
Tell me if your face, by chance, still has my taste
_____
With two shells in your hands
_____
You come dressed in gold and dust
_____
Talking in a cool way about the moon, the star
That now follows your day
_____
And, for my poetry, that's the full stop
_____
It's the point where I restart, retreat and say goodbye
_____
Ballerina, lead soldier
_____
Ballerina, lead soldier
_____
Ballerina, lead soldier
_____
Feels empty without your ballet
_____
Without your reheated coffee
_____
Lead soldier can't stand up
_____
Feels small without your ballet
_____
Without your reheated coffee
_____
Lead soldier can't stand up
