In love all there is lies tainted belief
Distilled within our thoughts, faith now traversed
In death there stands only refused relief
Become what you truly see as reversed

In love exists a chance to face exile
Processed feelings slowly emerge exposed
In death the truth is found through denial
Eternal foundations remain transposed

In my view your eyes cascade resistance
The love that flows from me to you ignites
A paradox shines through our existence
The death that streams from you to me takes flight

Yet still I find myself hearing your voice
Conviction holds as I accept your choice
The things that come together, stay together, and leave together.

A scarlet sky besets the realm around me
Welcoming my existence to the plateau of life which I sought with great determination
Scarlet leaves dexterously fall to the floor with nimble grace
The cries of angelic beings invigorate my ears
I can only see their scarlet eyes as they observe me from the heavens above
And her scarlet hair which was more refined than honored silk itself
Swings in the wind as she faces me with a curious look of inquisition
The wind caresses her scarlet dress causing it to dance with a rhapsody of acceptance
Her gentle aura rivets our actuality as she extends her hand to me
Her dominion is now the reality in which I lie dormant
For the longest time, all I saw was red.

She danced as if she were an international idol
Her movements performed with nothing short of unparalleled perfection
Her motions executed with the utmost of predetermined significance
With a slowed breath, her eyes opened and cascaded glances with my own
Our gazes interlocked as she smiled with an intense bliss
Her soul flew into the air above with harmonious grace as her feet moved in rhythm
Her body was no longer controlled by her own muscles but by the emotions surging within

Escaping the realms of reality, her being danced ever on
As I could feel my entire presence in this hall becoming captivated by her streaming mobility
The dancer before me had advanced through our dimension into her own state of mind
The music comes to a stop as does she and her mouth maneuvers ever so slightly towards me
Her whispers confirmed all that I needed to know

A bridge of light materializes between our hearts as she flutters on stage
And I can feel the world around us diminishing into nothing as her focus carries on
The realm around me is no more and the only thing within my sight is her
A finale of expected perfection—she slows her feet and opens her eyes with her sight locked on me
Her performance has been finalized and I can hear the crowd roaring with enticement wildly
But the only thing I see in this darkened world is her illustrious being
As she takes my hand with a confirmation of quintessence
She always looked happiest when she talked about her dance classes.

Her
Her presence tenses up my mind with darkened chains of uncertainty
Yet, simultaneously, an aura of calming peace radiates from her smile of warmth
Conflicting emotions arise within my subconscious, battling one another fervently
Revealing such feelings could potentially destroy what little we have
Thus, these thoughts remain undecided as I stand divided between confessions and hidden truths
All those times I couldn't decide, every instance weighing me down.
