Jade - The Mission

She came as Lolita dressed as Venus

And adorned with Stars

With her deft allusion and a Universe between Us

She showed me her skill with words and I showed her my Scars

Don’t mistake kindness for affection, she said

Don’t ever let the attention go to your Head

No more let Death divide what Life can join Together

But just remember there is nothing that can last Forever

And Jade is Benediction

She is silent Prayer

And Jade is Exaltation

The colours that I wear

And Jade is Contradiction

She is naked but never bare

Jade is a Work, a work of Fiction

Nothing more than Castles in the Air

The shorter the leash the harder I will pull

My glass is Empty when once it was Full

I wish I could be Jesus and turn water into Wine

'Cause all my grapes have withered, withered on the vine

With a smile like Mercury, elusive and fey

There’s a Beauty in the night that can’t be seen by day

She’s a barbed wire Angel insatiable and cruel

She destroys my resistance like the most Dazzling Jewel

And Jade is Apostasy

Abandoned Faith and Hope

Jade is Hypocrisy

She is Kaleidoscope

And Jade is Precious Stone

Impervious and Rare

And Jade will never atone

For the Flowers in her Hair

And Jade never sleeps alone

There’s always someone there

With Jade

To rest their Head on her thigh

To make her moist when she is dry

To hold the Breath of every sigh

To pledge their Life and how to Die

To kiss the sleep from her Eyes

To dry the Tears when she Cries

And Jade is all and Jade is None

And Jade is Moon and she is Sun

And Jade is You and Everyone

And she is Me and and all I’ve done

And Jade is Lost and she is Won

And Jade is the Bullet shot from your Gun …
