This swirling feeling – I'm feeling this – I can't quite be alone. I'm lost in my self, but it's so comfortable to attain a smaller piece of oneself when nobody's looking, nobodies looking so keep it to your self. These dark ribbons played across the highway in a world where everything is inherently empty, they look like fear but I fear not I know you're near I can sense it.

We can find our freedom, our respite if only we learn to surrender to the darkness instead of fear. For so many long years have I fought so hard.

Come to me from the other end of that lowly light, the bar down the street a little way I wanted to take a break from everything and see you because you, you are the only person I want to see. I have to fight through the seeming impermeable shadows in order to reach you before you land away. Am I chasing or are you waiting?

I will find you through the midst of this fog. I love you with the deepest sincerity my heart can muster, with a power that God himself must envy, and I will let nothing get in our way. I will raze Rome if I must, just so long as you're safe. If you're there....we do what we please and it is all beautiful and necessary unto ourselves. This amalgam of ***, literature, knowledge, ancient patience, romance, desire until all of this ends when I finally meet your eyes.

One of the slightest glances, but I feel an explosion of the most powerful emotions to overcome man and it has me reduced to tears not because of the loss of love but because I know now, I know now that there exists such a perfect creature of like mind of body of soul with whom I belong.

She is there, she is here.

Let us embrace in celebration of each other, let us share a comfortable, intimate place in this world that exists between our two heads.

Nothing can hurt us any more.
