Excitement ripples through me
coupled with anxiety
You still cut a fine figure
and i, this faded flower
feels pale before you

Time has dampened only half a world of passion
hidden by a thick velveteen veil
It sits straining under its weight
Hoping for an unguarded moment to let it all fall
And catch the fire with its wind
until its unstoppable!
consuming everything in its path
and nothing but destruction in its wake!

Both older, wiser and patience has enforced itself unto us.
But no fools, we know what torture lies in these endless moments ahead. About to endure many lifetimes in one flicker of an iris.
The message understood
The circumstances provide endless mystical musings.

Pinpricks of anticipation,
butterfly wings flick their tips on my insides.

I am dying to bloom once again
in the pleasure of your atmosphere.
