I looked into the blackness something existed hidden from us all
death was the ancient beast we knew its hunger since the first day
yet something else whispering behind the curiosity-- something concealed
as i search: a whisper becomes a word a word becomes a voice a voice becomes a friend a friend becomes the one
the one who desired me before all the others before death came loose
someone who fell in love first who laughed with me cried when i did cried bitterly at the darkness between us
now warmth and safety the tears of joy in that embrace
the joy for an eternity bridged in the darkness between us |
