I said your name aloud
in the candlelight,
like a small séance
for unrequited love.

I waited for you to haunt me
with your voice and quiet smile,
and felt a ghost of you
brush my cheek.

But when I reached for you
the candles only flickered
and the room was screaming
with unbearable silence.

Fanfares resounding
the crowd all too big
cheers around me
you stand on the stage
but they're not clapping for you.

My feet carry me closer and closer to you.
after all these years I'm still yours
there's no doubt about it.
I'm with you now, together onstage
but they're not clapping for you.

and while I might be yours
even after all those ****** years
tonight
the fanfares, the crowds, the cheers
are all for me.
with your big eyes...

she told me to stop crying
i kind of said no
because the dams i had built were breaking
and i had to release the h2o

It is my past that now speaks
It is good enough that I love you
I know how from afar
I am strong enough not to have you
I understand what you want
And take no offense to your absence
Though I dream of our nights together
It is our lives that matter most
And not our struggles together
It is a destiny that only gathers time
With no purpose other than our longing
And that is how it must live on
Until what must pass gives its consent

And the sun shone bright

The vision trembled

Silken silhouette

The outline of dreamers

Come together to be lovers

On the magic hill

Overlooks the sea

////

Just tiny child like seed in the heart of a man

••

Today

••

The ancient rituals still have their power

The bare breasted young women

The boy becomes whole and complete man

///

The footsteps linger

We must follow or suffer forever

We must follow when we can





The fog lifts and we see each other at last !

== == == ==

The hill !

•••

In the golden afternoon

All is finally delivered

And all illusion is gone
