A Desert Storm

I wander on that restless plain,	

Somewhere between ecstasy and pain	

Where the common world cannot touch,

The piece of my soul that I’ve missed so much.



Our bodies were dancing in the dark,

Like two long lost loves, who’ve been apart,

Somehow reunited on this desert plain

Somewhere between pleasure and pain.



The attachment I feel has paralyzed me.

It’s a white hot ball of intensity

It’s a puffy cloud in the desert sky

It’s a crashing tidal wave of desire.


That long ago and far away

Connection that we touched that day.

My life has been changed forever

I’ll never forget that 12th of September...


Our timeless love astonishes me so

The strength of it shows me it’s centuries old.

It’s something that carries an infinite price

Like trying to buy a ray of sunlight.It came on like a crack of thunder....

It’s a brilliant bolt of lightning I am standing under.

Rolling like a desert storm.

It possesses a mysterious, dangerous charm


It gives me a lump in my throat, I can’t swallow

It’s something I want to savor so slow 

It’s evident it’s not an everyday, ordinary love

It’s the kind everyone’s been dreamin’ of


We got lucky and found it

Now there’s no way around it

and no way to ground it

So let’s grab on and hold it tight in our hearts...
