Singing Nights and Faery Rings
Come to a place where the night can sing
Where they dance
And delight
Come through the ring
Through that place in the wood
To the world where wings like glittered lampshades take flight
Bring your heart,
Your love and life and lust,
Give it to the fae you’d most like to trust
Only start your journey,
Just come to the wood,
Through the trees in a ring
Where they always never stood.
If you’re good, they will keep you,
Hold you like treasure
And gift you all pleasures,
Cling to you tightly for ever and ever,
They’ll spin you sweet dreams,
They’ll keep you from leaving.
They’ll hold your heart through all of the seasons.
If you’re not kept, they’ll eat you.
Devour you slowly,
Leave you so lonely,
Take you apart so calmly and coldly.
They’ll rip you a nightmare,
They’ll burn out your seasons
They’ll take you apart for their sinister reasons.
So come to the place in the dark in the wood,
Come to the place where the ring never stood.
Come see the fae with their broken glass smiles,
Watch them glitter and gather a while,
Bring them your heart and bring them your life,
Come to them on a singing night,
But watch for the smiles that cut like a knife.
