rest in the river
cold water rushing over us
bodies warmed by the sun
cares washing downstream
while we remain at peace
-----
if there's one fantasy
that recurs time after time
it's to look at you...
just look at you...
to see you smile...
and know you know.
-----
too long finding you
too many years between us
too many differences
too many reasons not to
what's your point
-----
you don't want my words
yet i will share them freely
for you to keep or not
-----
such thin lines they are
between love and lust
between pain and pleasure
between trust and doubt
between young and old
between you and me
between he and she
between lovers...
who sometimes cross the lines
as if they were not there
-----
in lonely darkness
i can still feel your heart's heat
fire of my desire
-----
from my distant hill
i can see the growing glow
turn my steps to you
-----
your embers made fire
i join you in the darkness
fuel upon your flames
