i am a shadow
a shadow admidst a new flame
a catalyst once more
a devils advocate
a manipulative being
vengeful and alive
the darkness is a calming sea
there is more to this web that i have spun
there is more than the beautiful
hand craft
spider's webs
spider's gems
there is energy
there is light
there is darkness
tainted
a new hue
to an unexplained dream
it is here where the strange are amused
the pulsing rythymn begins
and keeps time
pulsating
like a fresh flesh wound
a hypnotic trance
where two lovers will fall
since fate has called them
now the dance of flames will begin once more
passionate
a lover's web
a spider's laugh
nothing more

To let yourself be seen,
To expose the bare emotion you bestow,
Expose it to the world,
Let your heart go.

a gentle breeze
simplistic
pure
the constant melody that resides beneath the sorrow
the simplicity that determines the complexity of the sound we perceive
the music that draws out innocence
the sonata that allows us to sing
it is here where we can venture to the farthest reaches of our minds
it is now that we acknowledge this inner voice
this inner voice that resounds the beauty we see beyond the lovers
the essence of living beyond the reaches of death
traveling
wandering
we'd face the world together
drowning in the echoes
these echoes that have filled our hearts
sorrow
torment
inner realization
happiness
the echoes of distant memories
they accompany us
as we take those steps
those steps into the distant light
the warmth that we have missed for far too long
the light that releases our shadows
our inner selves
muses
inspiration
sheer amusement
there is no time
no time at all
no time to say good bye
no time to shed tears
the sunrise has begun
distorting the false reality
that we have come to known and love
it is the now where we must run
we must run towards the light
towards the warmth
towards the love we've always known
i will run
and you should follow
follow me on this new adventure
i know i am slightly mad
but here we all are a little mad
there is little time
take my hand
and lets run
run
run
to the land of the forgotten sun
where there is warmth and understanding
spring is once anew
and the winter has ceased
don't fret love
my friend
the winter will return
there will be a time where we'll
return once again
we'll return home again
it'll be quick
you won't be missed
i promise you
come with me
let me show you this marvelous land
where we can laugh in the sunlight
bask in the warmth and find absolution
the land of forgotten sun
where there is life
warmth
shadows
don't be afraid
i'll be here for you to hold my hand
to hold my hand
in this surreal land
lets run away
to this wonderous place
a new adventure
far far away
from anywhere either of us know of
its enticing
its not an invite
its a command
come with me
surrender to your inner wanderer
surrender to the melody that is calling you
the song of inner passion
the scarlet shadows
eternal hymn
