Slumbering Heart

Your eyes like Kether, the beginning of all things

solemnly I swear to share my soul with your sight

sometimes the light looks so elegant in the white of your bright

ness, I weep in the wallowing waters of your world

the weight seems oh so Empty when you wash up on shore

I never bore in your presence, it is your mere essence

that I crave, in which it makes me behave in wild

wonders of wasted memories of yesterday, won't you

welcome me into the fantasies of your dreams?

 

Whenever there is darkness in my night I feel your

heart as my light to keep my days bright

your touch as sweet as the sound of silence that

Simon and Garfunkel slowly sing, sadness is never

my sword when you are around, my shield

never sorrow, I only wear the crown of your

cherished kiss. I'll never miss anything

more than the stone of your scent

 

I cannot recollect a time when all was simple

but in your hair is where I care to hide

when all my troubles seem too high to bare.

I will never scare those furies in the forests

of failure, but flourish in fables of your

fixed phantasms, your tragic caves and comedic

ark that seem to ring through rites of spring

 

You are my everything, my hope for a level

above gods and men, if only we could

live on vibrations of purity and aether

we'll travel through dimensions vast and humble

when some golden future welcomes the mumbles

of our soft sounding hellos and hurrahs.

 

Can I say? What more is there on earth than

emptiness where we can play and forget

what we used to be. This reality is no more

fantasy than the dreams we see each other

in, where we can swim and never drown,

where our gold rests not in crowns but in hearts

of blood beat waterfalls, flowing faster with

every fabric of our forgotten foundation.

 

The moment we met was tragedy because I could

never once again feel that happy.

Let's draw lines forever and never, oh never fall...

Our wings white with feathers of a new dawn dripping

with dew we could taste the elegance of a new life...

you need not be my wife, because all marriage leads

to strife, what we need are barriers, so everyday

we can break through and I can touch you

only to be pulled away and struggle to fight another

day and see your face, embrace the pain of

fading away, soft and slow, like a heartbeat that never existed...
