Spirit's Past
As I sit and watch it,
Ravenous, bloodthirsty, gentle,
As I sit and think,
The flame burns bit by bit.
----------
This dance is like my life,
Anger, sorrow, joy,
You are the light that shines,
Among this pain and strife.
----------
This ritual is my soul,
Alone, vulnerable, pure,
To you alone I drop defences,
For you alone, make me whole.
----------
This sadness is my own,
Bared, proud, scared,
But there you stand my angel,
As I cry, you take me home.
----------
This joy belongs to us both,
Sacred, scared, suspense,
We fly on the wings of this world,
So to you I swear this oath.
----------
I'm terrified of this way,
Winding, alone, unsure,
Eternity and you is all I want,
Me and you for all our days.
