Notes About The Poem
Collaboration Contest by Mystic Rose entitled Breathe
Breathe
When the night claims you like a wayward leaf of old
and it takes you to the caves where anything turns gold
you don't ask any questions and you don't dare breathe
you just follow her, like a light weight tumbled weed
Down the passages of dark, down the staircase of rune
every step a little deeper than the crevices of moon
you can almost taste the air, on your tonguing clepe
you can down the stars of heaven in one single leap
Taking you by the waist it shall dance you through
the elixir of happiness when your feeling down n' blue
you just thank the Lord for the magic of this gift
all you need is skin n' eyes to cross her lowly rift
When night claims you like a wayward leaf of old
and takes you to her caves, all etched with gold
don't ask her any questions just go ahead breathe
no, don't ask her anything at all, just breathe,
yes breathe...

Breathe
Yes, breathe in the magically sparkling air
flutter along without worry or care
heart pillowed in comfort and such peaceful ease
and if this is a dream, I ask, don't wake me please
Please do not wake me from this sweet happiness
this soft, silky feel of a golden caress
bewitched in her spell of a hypnotic dance
passions enslaved to a hungry romance
Oh, how I long to stay here in this place.
beyond all that I'd hoped for, to feel her embrace
with treasure as rich as the deep Spanish sea
my heaven of where I have so longed to be
When night claims you like a wayward leaf of old
and takes you to her caves all etched with gold
bathe in her music, and in magic, believe
there, deeply, in all of her mystery, breathe.
