I walk through the winding streets of hope
Where the wild fragrance of your thoughts still lingers.

I covered your words in velvet
And let the softness drown in my heart.

I read those long forgotten words
And lived again.

Your eyes glisten with stories untold

Your heart swallows tears to quench the fire within.

The screaming silence in your head

Creeps its way into your words.

Shall we die together?
Or shall we take turns?

The smoke that left me smiling
Now stings and burns.

The summer night
With the smell of roses and dust.

The moon
With her ancient smile.

Shadows slip into my mind
And dance.

Why do you whisper in my head
When I can see you?

You are the bright yellow flower
That flew in through the window today.

The dreams drown in the glowing pool of amber
And turn into an immortal intoxicant.
I cup my hands and drink.
