Inside Emerald

Inside Emerald
By: S. Rachele Chappell

Sapphire covered Emerald eyes,
a raging Ruby lies inside.
Sapphire drowns Emerald,
Ruby hides.
Sapphire covered Emerald eyes.
Ruby burns when Emerald cries,
Sapphire covered Emerald eyes.
Though she's happy here,
she's blue.
Disappointed of things she didn't do.
Thought time was forever,
but it flew.
She sits and dreams of life that's new.
Ruby comes in with a scream,
wakens Emerald from her dream.
Sapphire covers all that's seen,
Emerald floats back to her dream,
forgets Ruby even screamed.

Sapphire covered Emerald eyes,
a raging Ruby lies inside.
Sapphire drowns Emerald,
Ruby hides.
Sapphire tears from Emerald eyes.
Ruby burns when Emerald cries,
Sapphire covered Emerald eyes.
She's so confused of things that's been done.
Been so used,
she's on the run.
Hope, life did take.
She's never really asleep,
troubles always wake.
Salty tears she does weep,
Ruby hates all that's seen.
Tells Emerald of life's schemes.
Sapphire covers all that's seen.
Emerald floats back to her dream,
turning back to peaceful green.
