Earl Grey


Old tired earl grey
Misses his palais
His lady's colourful ways 
Painting bright his days 
Their teashop teardrops 
Only set to ferment  
Dull pains all forgot 
By pretty sentiment 
In his kingdom of defeat 
Waiting on a reprimand 
He never looked so meek 
Holding onto her hand 
In the city's shining greens 
Their faces kindly engraved 
Small and too sad to speak 
Sunlight frames their decay
