Small You Tumble Along

Small, you tumble, along,
Small, swaying, from side to side
Small, trousers wide, low, hanging
Small, hidden, behind glasses, thick
Small, like a boy

Hiding, your form, the sensual
Hiding, your face, the beauty
Hiding, your world, from them
Hiding, your life, from yourself
Hiding

Playing, with life, patching it
Playing, with life, changing its form
Playing, with life, in diverse ways
Playing, with life, scared
Playing

You, from Iberian half island
You, from artists foundry
You, from Eva’s fold
You, from pain scared
You

Protected, by the charade
Protected, by a woman’s kiss
Protected, by the women’s cause
Protected, by the artists expression
Protected

But you can’t, hold your true soul covered
But you can’t, hide your feelings
But you can’t, hide your true self
But you can’t, keep the energy within
But you can’t

Why then, did you smile?
Why then, did you keep smiling when I stopped?
Why then, did you keep on smiling whilst I just stood there?
Why then, did you feel the flow?

Why then

Why then
