The Love Never Known

forever winter
free for eternity
a look into the white morning after the death of night has awoken me
Your face a tattooed revelation in my mind
my sanctity, my salvation, my fleeting moments of peace
You are gone from me now

You never did belong to me
As I never belonged to you
we only possessed the night

Our shadows will find each other
they will escape from us in the night as we sleep
...and share the love we never could 
Maybe in a different time or a different world-in a city of bliss far far away...things
will be as we dreamt them to be
