Flower Face, Flower Face Formed with love and gentle grace To give Lleu a wife to wed, fragrant with oak, meadowsweet and broom. Born in the bright soaked light, a dewy maiden new and sun ripe with yellow hair and blush. Flower Face, Flower Face Don’t you know that petals fall as fast as they grow, left unattended and head turned. And so… My love Gronw and I decided Lleu must die. Flower Face, Flower Face It was not to be so They cast me out into the night, a ghosted wing in the dark where no flowers grow As Day turns to Night I own the inky spaces they gave me to roam Shunned by some, my vision is sharp here. Forgotten by many, my voice is shrill There is no light without the dark I said. Hold onto it all you like but the night comes just the same I said and the seasons turn to winter once again. You freed what you could never own And still I watch with Flower Face, a part of only your disgrace
