I close my eyes
And realize through the throes of this darkness
I am no longer the sacrifice strung through this vice
Through the sheets the phantom I know so well
Whispers my name, and within that instance
I cannot deny who I am, blissful delirium.
And with a surge of light I feel him beneath my skin
I feel his breath on my neck, baited with decadence
And with a rush as quick as rain he takes...And I so willingly give
My spirit, my soul, my breath, he's underneath...
Every ray of light, every shadow that is casted by this candlelight
He is the concurrent essence of my soul, and his presence...
Fills me with the purest of hopes
The kind that fold into paper swans, to flutter on the breeze
Those drifting cherry blossoms and elegant wind songs
My heart drifts unto melting symphonies...and with these wings...
I can soar along the currents of our destiny.

Gorgeous. My single favorite section is,
"He is the concurrent essence of my soul, and his presence...
Fills me with the purest of hopes
The kind that fold into paper swans, to flutter on the breeze"
