Lover's Quest-Collaboration With Darren White:

I’ll think of a place that’s far away, In my mind, I shall escape, In colours and shapes with nothing to say, From a land that has no fate. Swirling images that make no sense, Happy to fly amongst the scenes, In a world you may say is full of nonsense, This quiet world knows no screams. With only shapes, free forms of light, In many different colours. They swirl and whirl, in patterns bright, Infinitely turning smaller. 'Till they all fit inside your brain, A world inverted yet vast, Where peace lives, free from pain, Where future's also past. But between the two we shall both meet, As though it were our quest in life, I the stem, you the flower so sweet, Neither shall be seen by the knife. We’ll hold each other until the end, For that is the way that lovers do, In my heart my love I do send, And shall always be in love with you.

Magnificent collab, fellas. Seamless poetry, both of your voices blended as one, WW and Darren. Love the ending of course, it mellows my Romantic Warrior's heart. Love and joy to you both.
