Ode to my Unrequited Soulmate

Is this dream made of darkest sin?

A fight, a plight noone will win

A push, a pull, a tug of heart

Everything. Nothing. Pieces. Apart.

 

Oh how I wish your eyes could feel

Touch my soul and softly heal

But your eyes were blinded by my fire

The day we lit unknown desire

 

The day you followed me through my dreams

The nights you dwelled in our painted scenes

The days when we were mad with love

Finally resting descended above

 

Above the lying and cheating of life

The sleepwalking days and everyday strife

Out beyond existence of everday sin

Where daydreaming lingers and belonging begins

 

We lied and we cheated amidst liars and cheats

In their Kingdom banished to sinners' defeat

Now as I reach from my chains of deceit

You can barely whisper as I linger and creep

 

Oh how I wish your eyes could feel

Touch my soul and softly heal 

But your eyes were blinded by my fire 

The day we lit unknown desire

 

The day you showed me a place I knew

A place I could belong with you

Where liars and cheaters became beauty and truth 

As winds welcomed and sins away blew

 

We lied and we cheated amidst liars and cheats 

In their Kingdom banished to sinners' defeat

Now as I reach from my chains of deceit

You can barely whisper as I linger and creep

 

I creep because that's all a liar and cheater can do

To sneak from a place she can never be true

To hide as she lives in a place far from home

Lying because she can never be known

 

Creeping and sneaking and hoping you see

That as I end my days, truth and beauty I'll be

 

Beautiful truth can exist in me

I still believe it exists in we
