Splitting Images For centuries, marking time Waiting for your return All the while you’ve been here Just beyond a heavy curtain You must have marveled Whether I would take this leap Denying change for so long Yours is a patient soul Velvet drapes the leaded panes Snow storm blankets the day You emerge taking my breath Swiftly sweeping me into you Abandoning my usual control Submitting to your strength Letting shame go, shyness fade Delighting you builds my desire Lover’s limber limbs intertwine Where are yours, where ends mine? As bones and flesh intermesh Gateway, an unfolding mystery Soul in soul, many souls before I know this heart, this kiss bliss We’ll soar to the fiery cosmos Guided by our compass star Nothing separating us Only a transitory demise Until patterns repeat again My snowflake twin © 1999 Corinne Bailey |

Never has snow been so passionate for me. Thank you. ------------------ Once I was brilliant, now I no longer shine, but the twinkle in my eye speaks of another time. |
