Truth

I wrote this one for Scholari. I don't think I ever told him about it but I guess he knows now since it's sitting here in public. We have thought from time to time that we'd never have anything more than what we have online and I wrote this during one of those times.

[Of course if you've read "The Death of Love" you know that this relationship is now over.]

"Truth"

I love you

The truth of those words
Ringing in the darkness
Our passion flaring to
Eye-blinding brightness
Our desire for each other
Setting flame to our nerves
Filling our dreams with
Haunted longing

I lie awake at night
Wishing for what may never be
The joy of being with you
Torn
Tattered
Twisted into sorrow...

I love you
