"Princess of the Red Planet" [Poem for Alexandria #10]
Have you sailed the red glass sea
Oh, foreign fairest royalty
Have you seen the dual sunset
Oh, gorgeous, lovely, dear brunette
Does your crown weigh slight too heavy
Oh, highness, love, oh, dear majesty
Do you miss the crimson sky
Oh, princess with such tired eyes
Your royal gown, it feigns your grace
Oh, nebulaic suffering face
Your tears will cease, oh, foreign creature
I'll make you strong while I grow weaker
I'm nothing when my soul is gone
I am, to you, a broken pawn
But love for you, it fills the void
Even though I'm far destroyed
Oh, princess with such tired eyes
I'll bleed myself 'til crimson cries
Oh, princess with such tired eyes
I'll show you one last crimson sky
