Scarlet Angel

[ShadowsCool]

If I was left all alone
locked in a room far away;
I would only behold a picture frame
within would contain your face.

I would stare
from the lurch of my heart,
time with no space
between us and the stars.

I would find a way,
the ends of eternity,
to patrol the heavens;
hand you everything.

This heart - the flesh,
the depths, all the money;
In the deep conduit of the night
I will give all to you.

Caress you when you lay bare,
expect but for you to be there,
in the scantiest sheets or thickest blankets,
my secrets will speak to you.

That magical shire in the sky,
I will play with you there.
And when you needed a ride,
my wing will I give to share.

You see, I love you.
My voice groans for your voice,
my fingers probe for your fingers,
and your eyes ascribe mine.

They circle the sky at night.
They wonder where you are.
They see twinkles inside your smile,
and they get lost when you are lost.

They stay there and never leave,
they are stubborn, but eternal;
so wonder never why,
when one, us, shall die.

It was the great secret I told you.
The very reason we first touched.
The need I have to search.
The song which trumps the silence.

To where else should I go?
Since I've seen ice that melts from your sun,
and your eyes define internal beauty,
they arouse making love to you.
