When I'm far away.

out of our playing with rocks and fire came early science.

the way we kissed was 

composed of fire and blood,

pagan deaf tones.

 

we meet and somehow I get swallowed up in you

my soul finds the other half

this great chemistry

that lets me tell you "I have all the darkness you need"

without ever having to say it.

 

at the same time, when i look into those gentle green eyes

 

when I looked in those eyes of yours

I saw a perfect slice of earth.

yes, green at first glance but

The center is that beautiful sugared gold. Yes, honey. 

And out at the edge that deep crystal blue. 

 

The sun roams the earth each day searching for the piece you have

It scours the sky, and wants you too.

 

I see it, every day

the sun rising to meet you

and then I realize

 that you already have everything you need. 

I'll fall aleep by myself tonight

choking on the dark

and tomorrow when I wake you still won't be here. 

But I'll see you soon. 

 

We're under the same sky. 

I can see the sun. 

If the sun can find you so can I.

:: wow... this is magical... i can't think of anything else except my soulmate... and what it was like to find him... and hear his voice and his laughter... and then to lose him and to look for him... i have found him again... in a sense... but i haven't met him yet... as in re-met him... it seems like it's just a matter of time... (hopefully)... :: loved the images in this piece... they're just perfect... :)
