Upon a Bed of Petals

Upon a bed of petals

We became like Gods in murals

There, we burnt all our passion

By letting go of all our negation


Upon a bed of petals

I heard the Angels' recitals

When love bells are rung

When love songs are sung


Upon a bed of petals

I saw opening all those portals

Leading to the solace of your arms

Melting faced with the wrath of your charms


Upon a bed of petals

We bid life to show us the boreals

Given to us by a grace of the Lord

When He was merciful enough to give us his word


Upon a bed of petals

I became lost in depths, abysmals

There, in your eyes,

Was the expanse of the skies
