Buried under your eyes is an endless winter.
Your ambiguity is drowning
Your faith is shivering but I'm holding you
I'm not too warm myself.
I'll manage to get you safe into my house
You like fire, don't you?
We can sit by the chimney.          

When I get this close to your face, everything else falls apart.
Maybe in the next few minutes, you'd understand
just how much I've waited for you.

If mind is let too loose
It goes for a wild goose chase
If it is held too tight
Its ability is smothered in this case
Holding it still while thinking
Retains its natural pace

Like the waves never forget
It's job, I never forget to think
About you, my love, all I needed
Was just you, my everything.

Like the clock's hands never forget
It's work, I never forget to rewind
Our memories, my love, all I needed
Was just the love, my everything.

Like the top companies have
Their turn, you left by a chance
Then, I realised I can't take it
That way, my everything.

Like the rainbow has different colours
I saw your true colours flying,
Then, I realised I can't stay with it
That way,  I left, my love.

With honeyed words, the defenses were breached
and a villain crossed the threshold.
From his lips trickled the wine of sweet lies.
Intoxicating and rich, meant to dull the mind and awaken the body.
It turns to poison as it flows forth, infecting reality.
The dance gives way to frenzied fleeing as the stain consumes.
Silenced were the songs of longing once the heart had ceased to sing.
I found this in my copy of Egyptian Magic by E.A Wallis Budge this morning. I have no idea how old it is.

I  was awaken by the song
Playing on the radio
The librettos are familiar
To my ever longing soul
So I get an old photograph
Of us together
I put it on my chest
Close to my heart
As the melody pacifies the air
My soul  sways again
Ah, it is always you, my love
The reason,
My *joie de vivre
Joie de vivre: a delight in being alive
                  : keen, carefree enjoyment of living

“The sun died every night
just to let the moon breathe.”

I shivered, as whispered screams and silent pain of fragmented hearts
Pierced through the atmosphere of comfortable lies and prison bars
Looking down upon streets filled with hushed crying in locked cars
******* the words “I’ve been left” in my palm filled with glass shards
I am looking at the moon, and I am reminded that there is still someone
That touches my soul and feeds me emotions when I thought I had none
I am looking at the moon.

It is 2:58 am and I am writing this to expel your fingerprints from my body
Because your being has covered my skin with memories of love and beauty
The dead beating of my heart cannot forget how it felt when you came near
How the mere mention of your name caused my eyes to only see you clear
I am looking at the moon, with its silver skin, gleaming light and mesmerizing craters
And I am reminded of what we were, how we were beautifully imperfect chapters
I am looking at the moon, again.

It is 3:15 am and I am still trying to forget how a love so beautiful can crumble
My heart’s still pumping blood that seems to heat when your image tumbles
We were something real; *we were lost fingertips that found home in each other’s palms

But time was too weak to grasp a love so soft, a love that resembles seas that were calm
You were the moon and I was an ocean, and I willingly let you pull at my veins
Causing a tidal wave of memories and unspoken words that left me insane
I am looking at the moon, still.

It is 3:41 am and I am still thinking about your hands and how they held an atlas
How you memorized maps of my surface and how beautiful things don’t really last
We were something beautiful and true and something that was bound to break
Our love was a forest of mixed rose bushes and thorns that time wanted to take
But don’t worry about me, the moon still listens, its light still glistens on my scars
And I can close my eyes knowing that *you and I still cry under the same moon.

So I will look at the moon, for as long as needed,
until your hands
aren’t my home
**anymore.
i'm still trying to forget you and i'm sorry i still love you
