Last night I dreamt again Of a place long lost from memory You stood beside me On a darkened shore The waning moon overhead Inky waves crashed in with the tide The ivory of your skin Glowed radiantly And illuminated our way The island, so small, so large Was a labyrinth But you couldn't get lost And I followed your luminescence In the core of the maze Sat an ice statue of us Locked in agony or ecstasy So lifelike, so vibrant And then you sang A haunting aria of love of loss Of loneliness and pain Tears poured down my face Or maybe it was the ice melting As I became colder The statue came to life And you ran me through with a dagger My blood froze around us I watched the sculpture depart
