Stay alive deep within me.
Fill me everlastingly by a peace enduring; a hope unfading.
Cure me of my curiosity; let my dreams be truly fulfilled.
By the warmth of you - inside of me - I revere an eternity of a freedom held by you.
Love, love of my life, allow me - if only once - to write the most beautiful art.

When all is swelled and the waves are pounding; more and more you stay the course.
When your ship is flung and your sails are tilted; more and more you stay the course. With rocks abound and your vision failing; more and more you stay the course.
When the night is darkest and the storm is ferocious; more and more you stay the course.

With winds tormenting and sounds that deafen; more and more you stay the course.
When harder and harder your heart is pacing; more and more you stay the course.
Through fear by fear your soul is fleeting; more and more you stay the course.
When heavier and heavier the weight is crushing; more and more you stay the course.

It was the dark that saw me. The light was gone, nothing uplifted me, my sorrow all consuming, my heart skewered.

It was the dark that held me. Shackled to an abyss of hopelessness, time stilled, my mind reeled into nothingness, fear abound, doubt in abundance.

It was the dark that knew me. Calling my name, acknowledging my pain, embracing me, holding me dearly, so close, so friendly.

It was the dark that made me whole. Filling me with hollowness, pouring into my soul, caressing me, arousing me, making me explode in relief, energising me with grief.

Alas, I discovered your hiding place; found you hibernating within.
Love, my elusive friend, welcome home.
