Fierce whips of love light Dance in front of my eyes Opera of our souls Slow majesty curtain of the damned Can never bleed and stain our pure hearts
We approach people admiring sunsets Ignorant of their beings We love them like statues moving Slow, physical, vivid bodies
What am I? But a wounded storm Slow, cold winds of apathy Yet, I boast in having the heart of an eagle Running through America's screaming woods of our time
I almost forgot how to open my eyes I almost wasn't able to see a light Since the day you left me with your good bye I never stopped asking myself every night Why? ---- Of all people it's me you chose to hurt, why? I promised myself not to cry I'll try and try and try This broken heart of mine Nearly made me blind
A RAY OF LIGHT IS WHAT HER VOICE. It BRINGS IN TONIGHT, BUT MISSING THE BREEZE THAT TOUCH HER CHEEKS... NO CRY, NO LAUGH, NO TEARS.
SHE IS SEARCHING IN THE SHADOW. THAT LIMITS THE HORIZON, UNKNOWN TO HER SOUL. AND IN HER SORROW, BREATHING WITH DIFFULTY, MOISTERING HER DORMANT LIPS, SHE MUMBLED... ... WHERE ARE YOU?
BEGGING TO HER SILENCE, HOPING TO HAVE THE ECHO, HER HAND POUNS ON HER BREAST, SWIFTLY EXCLAIMS. ... DOES YOU DWELLS IN ME? SLOWLY RAISING HER HEAD DELIRIOUSLY, SHE, FAINTS AGAIN!
IN HER SUDDEN DREAM SHE, PAINTS AGAIN A TEXTURE CONNECTING A TORRENTOUS FEELING, OF HER SOUL AND THE FLESH, PORTRAYING HER VOICE, IN AN INTIMATE FINALE OF LOVE!

A blinding light flashes in the distance. Several unrecognizable colors swirl into grey streaks before finally drifting away into what seems like nothingness. The boundaries of this world are completely undefined and the horizon melts into an unknown eternity. This is the beginning of life. The concept of time and space is left to be lost within an uncertain reality. A second series of lights stumble in drunken skips toward my direction. It knows I'm aware of my own existence. The lights dance randomly until they finally sink into one glimmering beam, splitting in half instantly as it somehow rushes toward me, slowly picking up a dangerous speed in the path of its awaiting target. It found me. Nothing but thin air and silence separates me from this. The silence becomes my only hope. My body locks the moment I'm caught in the tight clench of fear, the light taunting and swerving along my skin, and with a light-headed confusion, I collapse and end up sprawled across an oddly warm floor. What I think is several hours later, my consciousness returns. Objects melt into defined lines of familiarity, tints and hues blend to form definite colors, and the universe sways and sinks into place. I am brought back to the World I have always known but will never understand. I am nothing but a figment of my own reality.
And even though we Danced in the light of a Thousand fireflies, a million years Ago,
I still feel the flutter of Your heart beneath My fingertips.
And now, that i have Grown to know That you, too, are a creature of The night, I know that you will not Linger when the sun's Light reaches Your starlight skin.
Beautiful bits of life Thrive in the skies that kiss your Being.
So i understand, darling
Why the only light and stars You can love is here in The deep sea of The midnight sky.
Perhaps, we can run away Into the darkest part of The universe, Into the depths of that sea Which never ends,
And maybe, Just maybe, we could Make memories Beautiful enough to last a lifetime
So even when you leave, I will know In the back of my Mind, That i have taken the best of you For myself
