    FEMINA, AERIS (Songs of the Mist-Final phase,Part 9)

    Femina, Aeris-woman of the ether

    ...and now we're at the end
    No more songs 2 write
    Nor virtues 2 defend
    In my heart I know
    Events were never as they seemed
    4, I loved her
    Only in a dream

    My Celestial Ballerina girl
    Jete en Avant, Grand
    The leaps you do unfurl
    Posing seductively arabesque
    I fell in love
    I do confess

    What is fate
    But frivolous chance
    A man waitng patiently
    2 ask an Angel Devine to dance
    Alas,
    She departs
    Before the music ever starts
    Leaving Songs of the Mist
    And a broken heart

    Thy sit
    And contemplate
    While
    Songs of the Mist
    Evaporate
    Into an atmosphere
    Of love labour's lost
    And unfortunate tears

    ....and now I pay the cost
    Of sacrificing my heart
    2 songs forever lost
    Strings and harpsicord
    Once played a mournful tune
    2 the lunar phase of
    My Harvest moon

    An eclipse of my discordant soul
    The enveloping darkness
    Encompassing my lack
    Of self control
    So many nights
    I informed the Goddess Venus
    That you were my destiny
    Now,
    All that's left 4 posterity
    Is a rendering so very cruel
    Of
    A statue of a fool

    As it sit
    And contemplate
    While Songs of the Mist
    Evaporate
    Into an atmosphere
    Of Love labour's lost
    And
    Unfortunate tears...

    And so it has come 2 an end
    The 9 phases of Darwin, my friend
    It seems
    Songs of the Mist
    Can only exist
    In the hearts of fools
    And the souls of those
    Who gain no recompense
    For
    Love
    Labour
    Lost

    Farewell..
