AT some appointed time the darkness interfered with us
people turned to camouflage who then could have been near to us
life became a close encounter, fringe-like and unclear to us
roaming from the places that should have been so dear to us

WE learned to take things so seriously, like laughter cutting through the air
then found irresistable company, when we called the darkness was there
allured into numbing euphorias, expensive to say the very least
each time hiding more and more of us, one more beauty one more beast

CEREBRAL escape left us delerious, pounding hard to fly away again
from a meaning that's still mysterious, sounding loud to see the day again
cloud cover draws like it's imperious, reigning over foot and face and hand
having absolutely no fear of us, leaving its' very throne unmanned
