"Réminiscence"

 

Violent ends have violent beginnings. 

And in their triumph, they die - like fire and powder, consume, as they kiss.

 

Why can’t my face reach the ground? 

Everytime you’re not around, I see the sands drifting me away - wave after wave, pulling me back into a sea smoke of love. 

 

Asking myself, what madness is this? 

 

When you left, you stripped me bare. 

Like an arrow piercing through my heart, I can only see you - yet a trace.

 

Like a huntsman giving chase - you escape - fearless, as you fly - my heart trembles. 

Strange, as a beast - so wild, quenching my thirst, like a pulse of blood circling behind a bruise.

 

Pain is the only prove that you were real - that all these were. 

Within this book - love is passed on. 

From fate, from glory and from time, our golden story, written yet in gold.

 

After table’s turned and lessons learned, every tick of the clock is just a dream. 

Yet a dream may come, as we pass by - like fire and powder, consume, as we kiss.
