The snap is audible
I fall forever
Into that pool of the light
Flash red
flash blue
flash green
And the colours fade

I lie in the warmth
Of only memories
wrapping around me
Softness begging me
let go, let me in
Allow me this one moment
and so all others

She seduces
With fine words
With soft form
With true freedom
With no regrets
Wine for the gasping man
Her promises are to me

So i open myself
even as she envelops
I give myself
As she takes me
And the beat subsides
and once more alone
I am lost

To take a lot of pain,
take a lot of pain
Love is like a cloud,
holds a lot of rain

Be thankful for every person who has caused you pain. In that moment, they became your assistant of growth.

This is kinda cool.  I get the sense the "she" here is some kind of feeling or phenomenon.  I'd say death but... lost sounds a bit more like a continuing psychological state so the speaker's very much alive.

In any case, cool read.

This is good. Anyone can relate to these feelings.
