Blunt, hot, your finger touched my wet palm
Black&White world blazed with purple fire
Underneath - strange and wild desire
And around - mysterious realm.

Smelling skin I trembled in your arms
And melted helpless against the ancient wall
Behind it, behind the solid bars
You kept all the captured before souls.

Craze, fast, I saw gold sparkles in your dark eyes
You looked deep inside me and stayed there forever
Whatever you'd done - your crimes, cynicism, lies
Didn't matter while we burned in fever.

Frank, strong, I watched your heavy faceā€¦
Trying to get out of my great confusion
I wary smiled - would you form or raze
Something beautiful from my mixed up delusions?

Green dragon blossomed in my sweating mind
Ran through my fingers, stroke nipples and toes,
Sweet longing for a man one of a kind
Was fulfilled at last as I made my choice.

Letting you in I screamed out all my pain
I ran through the towns of the deepest kingdoms
I flew in the clouds; I lied on the meadows
Empty and beautiful under absinth rain.

I saw jealous eyes around -
Starring at me with quiet hatred
They were looking for hidden dirt, they'd found
Stories from my past, forgotten, faded.

I heard them talking, I could see their thoughts boiling
Around us in the twilight air
As we sat on the edge between life and death, smoking
Sharing your hot pink-black lair.

Soft, gentle, you were lying relaxed -
your head on my knees, teasing
Nothing mattered then, it was just
Your voice, your warmth, breathing.

Where did you go? Where is the path that would lead me
To that razor blade on which you walked alone?..

...somos los locos para siempre
para siempre te amo
   mi vida...

This is very good. Happy to have stumbled upon it.

"I saw jealous eyes around -

I know these eyes...My own stories, and that dusty path to the past.

And? it would seem there's not room for two on the razors edge.


Cool write!
