"hold me in your arms
never let me go
i wanna spend eternity with you"
lying in the darkness
hear your gentle breathing in my ear
the warmth of your bare skin
and i draw closer into you
i know i never want to wake up
never want the sun to rise
because i have already given you all of me
when reeling a fish in
it is always important to release the tension in the line
otherwise the line will simply snap
and the fish will simply just get away
and i feel like throwing the towel in
giving up and crawling back into the comforts of my confined little
cold
empty space
but then again
the i am already shrouded in darkness
her strong claws
digging into my skin
that firm grip
entrenching me
and i struggle to breakaway
i couldnt agree more
thank you
pick my way cautiously over the pebbles and through the undergrowth of bamboo to arrive at the front door.
ascend the narrow staircases till finally we arrive
behind the last door
wooden stairs lit by candle light we thread gingerly upon
the night breeze blows gently rustling my hair
lit my eyes upwards
and the vast expanse of sky smiles down on me
the night enveloping me in her beauty
the moon in saccharine sweetness
the bright glowing orb high above.
and thoughts weigh down upon me
their intense weight pressing down on my shoulder
deep down
i know i already have the answer
why do i keep trying to deceive myself
i need to stop running away

and savoured its lovely aroma and sweet taste
but that wasn't why i blushed
an overwhelming feeling of happiness
the light shone out from within
radiating a steady glow
that brought that tinge of pink to my cheeks
for that little window of time
it was as though the wind had knocked the senses out of my brain
and i just threw all inhibitations, coherent thought and logic to the skies
but the higher they fly
the harder they will come crashing down on you
and i feel overwhelmed by the sudden reliasation of the burden on my shoulder
having once rid myself of its weight
i dont think i am simply just playing with fire
i might have just walked into a burning jungle
the flames teasingly lick at supple flesh
before englufing me in a sudden surge of ferocity
but when tested i doubt
run away and cower in fear
so does this mean that i dont really believe?
And the day but one.
Yet the light of the bright world dies
with the dying sun.
The mind has a thousand eyes,
And the heart but one;
Yet the light of a whole life dies
when love is done."
and i run up
to stop you just before you turn away
a gentle touch
my cold hands on your warm skin
feet rooted to the ground
silence ringing in our ears
words screaming in my heads
stuck at the back of my throat
hot tears pricking at my eyes.
you inch forward
and i watch in vain as your back disappears into the shadows
a salty taste on my lips
my cheeks are wet
