Reckless

am I derelict

knowing now what I was uncertain of then

stuck in slow motion, pressing on air

tasting the promise

we both knew

yet,

somehow refused to pluck from the tender bloom there

dancing on snowflakes

I slid,

straight to the center of something less than ten

steps to nirvana

meet me in elysian fields

where we'll dance with reckless abandon

run across the midnight moon

all before daylight

all before the sun begins to hide

that is, if it's still summer

springtime is passing

and winter is near,

stuck in slow motion

holding back tears...

:: exquisite imagery, sweet alisa... and lyrics that sing a very poignant heartsong... :: i have known this profound pain... and it's still there somewhere... i reached a point where i had wept so much that my eyes couldn't take it any more without me getting an eye infection... seriously... i know it sounds funny but i'm not kidding at all...
