oblivious remarks pierce the air like arrows
they fly around our heads
like sugar plum fairies
waiting to strike at our dreams

words exchanged they hang
empty, soaked in underlying emotions
coated with expectancy
they fall

shattered looks of pained expression
melt away broken hearts
we stare through to each soul
bruised by poison rain

gaps of glass
tread cautiously
to barred soul
untamed

release the beast inside
revive emotions drowned
by whispers tainted
you are the one

a single touch and bonded
our roused lips laced
moving in sync to the beat of
our undying hearts

our eyes meet
locked in a trance
and we know
forever is just a moment away
