Analysis of Made of amber
Heather Lydia Thornhill 1981 (Manchester)
Inside I am shining gold as amber
Outside I am bleeding red as roses without the blood
I want you to feel me from the inside light and fulfilled
But see not the outside demise that grains to each shaking heart beat
Each time I think of you I also grow older too.
So think not of me, think of light, and so will I in this stay.
For we can live forever together this way.
