Sigh!

In glowing moonlight I sketch it all out 
conflict ,judgement, pain, and doubt 
does it even matter, will it ever matter 

do you trust yourself to be with me? 
will you let me love you endlessly? 
words unspoken, just leave us hoping 

I'll breathe the air, much as one can 
I'll see your eyes, 'though veiled in crimson 
I need one second, just to catch my breath 

The smoothness of your skin 
your lips call for the sweetest sin 
Is it logical...to crave like this? 

You be my shelter from the rain 
I promise...to make you whole again 
Can I keep you, can I tie you down? 

Pictures, mirrors, and fracture in time 
says you and me, may never be you and I 
So forget the broken wings, forget the promises 

Solitude in silence,  swell & thickening 
my cries now deafening 
I need this whole century...to catch my breath!!!
