If gold is the sweat of the sun

And silver the tears of the moon

Then jade are my feelings for you

For jaded feelings came so soon.



I rightly wear jade and silver

For night time often makes me cry.

I am lost in splendid sorrow

Whenever the bright moon looms nigh.



..Memories of our grand passion,

Of loving to self's distraction,

For which I'd crawl on burning sands,

Sell my soul for its protraction...



Forever gone are girlhood dreams.

Now all illusions are shattered-

Love and marriage and happiness

And true commitment that mattered.



It's great forces of fire and wind,

Sea and sky -eternal conflict,

Good and evil, present and past

Hate that some love seems to inflict!



Oh! for the rain after a drought

The spring air after winter's cold-

But that astounding gift is gone

So it's silver and jade, not gold.
