Analysis of Mild

Heather Lydia Thornhill 1981 (Manchester)



Hold me in your gaze
mild face on a manic mind
Hold onto love without me
As I hold onto mine
Satin circles enbeded in violets
Tides return from warm caress
To watch the stars of their distress
Asking do you still love me in this new dress
