I die a simple death tonight I cry a simple tear of light I wish I were not so alone... I wish you were-- wish me...my own. If you were not so far away it would be the other way... you'd see the fire blue light eyes you would feel this spark-- desired... you would kiss me-- you~admire~ even now taste my perspire even how of love expired... you... a simple death tonight, you, you could have staved my plight-- but oh it is not meant to be, you think you are too good for me. and oh how worthy i will be... when you are faced with thirst of me..... a simple death, the death of me-- or so you think- I've yet to be. |

S'en, An epic longing for love in the dark. I loved it. One question: did you want the last stanza to end wish me ... my own, or WITH me ... my own? Mike |
