What if we were meant to meet this way ?

Neilton

What if we were meant to meet this way?

Locking gazes ,

Engulfed in flames 

Playing enervating games

Unbeknownst to my innocent days

Igniting glimpses infatuated 

Was the daisy chain belated?

Searching for clues-so complicated 

 

What if our days were suddenly diminished 

To a single minute ?

When we felt each other's eyes 

Leering 

While lights changed shades-

Blue,green,red -bright as day -

Shadowing your dazed face,

Rhythm around our waists,

Dancing the night away ,all ablaze,

I wonder if your mind Ever roamed

 To some other place

Could we truly be meant to meet this way?

 

But lust only lasts in the dark 

If you risk your finest cards

If you choose to be burnt 

In torrid looks, in your morals' theft

 

So I got caught in a forlorn hope-

Were you meant to be loathed

By the star who shines all alone ?

Unaware of pain,

unaware of death,

Unaware of the quiet treasons of men.

 

And if it is as they say: 

"Long glances are proof of hate"

"No one stayed idle and won the game"

We were never meant to meet this way,

Yet the flames of our ardent yore

Will burn brightest

before they fade along.
