Space has unfolded as does a rose
And within it’s petals we stand holding each other
In our arms looking deeply into one another’s eyes
Our wings at rest moving in the gentle winds of time
Our love grows as the petals fall
Turning back ‘til we stand on the stem of a rose
I grasp you tighter into my arms
And fall backward off of the stem
We fall for what seems forever
As the world reaches up for us my wings flare out
Catching pockets of air while I hold you closer
Still the world grabs for us lessening
Our bodies angle upward toward the night sky
Our lips lock tightly and your wings stretch open wide
Arching our bodies straight up
Until we are just a silhouette against the moon
We stay there motionless
The kiss still lasting
Our bodies rotate as our wings close around us
Pressing our souls together ‘til we are one
Together we float as one being
Gazing down on the world below
Casting flames down upon it
Burning the lands and oceans
The fire spread quickly ‘til ash is left of the world
We glide down landing on the embers
As new life grows where our feet touch
Bringing forth a new world
Fresh and new full of opportunities
Standing still the wind at his back the sun setting behind him
Silence in the air as the moon rises high
The stone cracks and breaks as his wings open up
Rock crumbling to his feet as the air grows cold
Bright eyes open cutting through the last bits of stone
Standing there he waits for another day to come
A hollow hallway
An empty path in the woods
The hidden tunnels of a cave
The labyrinth of the mind
All lead down the same path
The path that is to bring them together
He at one end of the path waiting
She at the other contemplating
The scene is the same
She waits for reason
He waits for her
The darkness that hides the secrets
The unknown of the travel down the pathways
Keep her from going to him
She walks down part of the way
But turns back and runs to her starting point
He sits on a stone waiting for her
Calmly there in the darkness
The moon illuminating his face
The small fire in front of him flickers about
Showing parts of his body
She sits under an old tree
Her knees to her chest
Putting her head down hiding her face
The moon shining through the leaves
Become patches of light on her body
His hand reaches down for hers
A light smile on his face
Taking his hand they walk down the path together
Black fire in a small glass ball
Swirling like water
Moving with no cause
Rolling off a table
Falling to the stone floor
Breaking into pieces
Spilling the black fire on the floor
Large black metal vines grow from the black fire
Vines that twist and turn
Growing along the floors and walls
Up the tables legs
Growing rapidly
The metal vines reaching out across the floor
Climbing the bed
Twisting and turning
Moving like snakes under the covers
Lifting her body off the bed
Raising it into the air
Her body laying still
The vines growing up around it
Hiding it from view
A black rose takes shape from the vines
Opening up it shows her in the middle
The black metal leaves of the vines open
Releasing hundreds of lights into the air
Dancing along the vine
Dancing their way up to the rose
Illuminating its petals
Revealing her beauty to the night
Eyes open wide to the world
Blind to that which is there
Unable to see the truth
Might as well keep them closed
This world that is kept hidden
From these eyes to weak to see it
Memories flood back
Showing what is there
No longer using these eyes to see
Only using the eyes that are hidden
Hidden eyes to see the hidden world
The world that is truly there
A world not seen by all
But one that is seen by few
This hidden world is full of pain
The bodies that walk around
Are the same ones that see the fake world
They walk in the hidden world only see the lie
Not able to take the truth
The truth that this world is dying
No longer able to keep life
Only to spread pain
The cuts on the bodies still bleed
But they feel them not
Walking the lonely street
The broken store windows
The shattered hope that lay on the street
This world of truth is not fit for all to see it
You can tell the ones that see this hidden world
From those that see the lie
They walk with caution with cuts that bleed no longer
Watching this world
Forever watching
Why must I be tormented so
The tears I feel in my heart
The pain it feels
My sunny day once bright has turned cloudy
The time spills over me as I wait
I wait so long the pain growing with in me clawing to get out
Ripping at my skin fighting to break free
I collapse to the ground on my knees my body slumped over
Hands on the ground holding me up barely
My head hangs down as rain falls
Mud covering my hands as they sink in the soft ground
Rain flows down my face hiding the tears I have not cried before
My wings weighed down with water cling to the ground
As my arms give out from under me
Falling to the ground soaked in the rain that falls so ******* me
Foot steps are heard but far away
I stay there lying on the ground as a hand is placed on my shoulder
I lift my head up to see your face
Your tears hidden by the rain
You sit down next to me placing me head on your lap
Your tears stop as we are together again
No longer in a life of pain and sorrow
No longer apart from the other but together
Star dust falls upon her face as her eyes stare deeply into my
For she is my love
My heart
My reason for living
My heart pains me when she cries making my head spin twist and turn
Not being able to be there for her physically only spiritually
Not being able to hold her tight within my arms or to brush away her tears
My heart jumps in joy when we talk
I lose all logic and connection with the world around me
But when we can't talk and I have to leave
My heart is smashed into the tiniest of pieces
My dreams and thoughts are filled with her
No moment where I stop thinking of her
I feel her with me as I dream for
I am with her in that world of truth
