In Jubilation

I love you

You know that don't you?

I couldn't live without you

Or could I?

I'll never let you go

I just did, didn't I?

Should i be cliche?

I want you, I need you

It's true...

Oh God, but is it?

Is it really you?

Today it is tomorrow it isn't

But only for a minute

Then it's always back to you

Deeper

Deeper

Deeper again

How can i possibly feel you this close

When you're always so far away?

I don't care

Let me rejoice

Just knowing you exist

Dreaming that you exist

So let me be

Loving you

To Do With Time

Is it over yet?
It doesn't feel like it...

(it isn't really, but that's not the point)

There is so much to do before i can sleep
So why am i sleeping now?

Procrastination is an art
and i am a master.

or is it my master?


Time is never satisfying.


Tumultuous


It's always slipping away

and i can't get it back...

An Encouter in Two Parts

Do I hear your voice?


No...


Is that it again?
Or is my imagination giving us sound?


This scene is silent.
A theatre held in suspense
Shock, horror, awe
At the scene unfolding.

Yet the curtains are still drawn.
This scene is a secret.
Who knows we exist?
It suits us well.

Anonymity is favoured among those who commit such dark deeds as ours.
On whom society may frown and in turn applaud.
Two faces show how we have changed
Two faces show our sameness.

As long as the curtain is drawn
(and we are hiding together)
Keep me here.

Keep me in your embrace, or you in mine.
Keep my forehead to you bosom, or yours to mine.
Keep your hand at my side
As mine caresses your back.

There's much to be said of a dark deed
Countless untold caves with pools of black water
A single stone slab protruding, the crack in the mirror.
Find the darkest place and you have found us.

Once again
Hold me tightly.
Tangle my hands in your hair
Tangle yours in my shirt.

One senses the fire that hides in this place
Though the darkness is impenetrable.
One thinks they hear it yet never do.
We are too clever for that.

Glance into my eyes
I will hold your gaze
I'll not let it go
Not until your eyes can no longer resist the pull of their sockets.

The light should be blinding
All should know.
Yet they are blind to this
To us.

Give me that moment.
Let it be mine.
That one second, one infinitesimal moment of time
Where eyes glaze and hearts cry out

They suspect
They do not
A time may come when all will know
It is not today.

Cry out my name
I'll whisper yours.
Stop time for me
Please... I must have it

As the black pool rocks with turbulence
Waves crash to the shore, against the walls.
The lines blur, the curtain fades
Nothing else matters.

Lay in my arms now
I'll lay in yours.
Keep me forever
My heart on your shores.

The stone silence returns, the black pool is calm.
They wish to be free, as they lay in each other's arms.
All is as it will be
And the curtain flutters in the breeze.
