Disassembling Time
photo at http://goo.gl/xjzdnC |
The softness of your skin
always surprises me
At nights
the air is shining, silver
a halo swirls softly around your body
as you become the Moon
inside my arms
What a strange notion is Time
Time before you
Time after you
and the in between emptiness
where I keep the secret pieces of me
safe from the rush of the years gone by
safe from the corrosion of memories
longing for your pain
to bind to my own
I peel off Time from its blooded shell
moment by moment
the Then and The Now
and the Hereafter
I count again and again
the missing parts
the missing parts
How many autumns before we met
How many winters
white and long and cold
burying my heart swiftly under the snow
How many springs without you
and now many summers apart
How many nights when I,
lost into another world
was waiting for you
it was always the longing that made my lips bitter
and the dreams of you paler and paler...
Still, I keep taking off
another fragment
another memory
disassembling Time
disassembling Time
until the only thing that is left
is the Now
That breaks in two
I take the half part that I had lived before you
you take the half part that you have lived before me
when we put them together
we are born again
in a glorious new ray of light
trembling sweetly
spinning the pendulum of our need
feeding our hunger
every day
and every night
when we make love
