purple mountains crash the land
up, erupting, breaking through
in all their violent violet majesty
so i feel breaking into you
a release of unfathomable force
the kinetic energy of earth built up
stored for a break in the surface
a hairline fracture of the psyche
the downfall of a fallen fool

you led me through your garden
your hand held soft in mine
like a delicate budding of a rose
more beautiful than our surroundings
more natural than the earth we trod
amidst a scenic world of strange beauty
and i only want to look into your eyes
to get lost among their winding paths
waiting for you to find me, wandering
