[ACROB@T]

~out of narrow waters, faded and capsized baptisms
beyond the horizon his mind prays it can reach
swift currents stronger than forgotten vow
lights open hands skim across her silent caresses
ocean collapsed lips, ecstacy in winters sleep..
trailing a clean wake where love is eclipsed
where failure a blessing for a woken spirit cut loose
..drifting downstream to the open sea
on loan to life in natures charity..
..its sweeping rainfall that weeps unashamed
silk burnt blood swept along widowed ground
waiting patiently for the birth of dawn
when they can kiss tenderly the hearts on fire before it..
silhouetted everytime they steal the night again~.
where time takes a deep breath and continues on..
beneath hollow scars burnt in silence
when caresses become lashes..
as he dies upon the earth of his lovers heart
where darkness blooms beside the light
shining like a distant promise..
..subtle on her lips..
..burnt on his own~..

so tragic

..drifting downstream to the open sea
on loan to life in natures charity..
..its sweeping rainfall that weeps unashamed
silk burnt blood swept along widowed ground
waiting patiently for the birth of dawn
when they can kiss tenderly the hearts on fire before it..

I swear I am in the worst mood but this is so beautiful, it makes me feel a little better. you write so beautifully Acro, you really have a gift.

 

[Alisaura]

That IS beautiful... I'm too tired to appreciate it properly now... will come back tomorrow

show me the world as i love to see it

Paul, your words always leave me wanting to read more.
Its just always so beautiful and lyrical.
You remind me of Bono during the UF days.

silk burnt blood swept along widowed ground
waiting patiently for the birth of dawn

there is a rapid flowing progression to this but yet it has a definite beauty and grace about it reminiscent of stuff like "A Sort of Homecoming," "Three Sunrises" and "The Unforgettable Fire"

beautifully tragic...

when they can kiss tenderly the hearts on fire before it..
silhouetted everytime they steal the night again

Very lyrical.
