Something Wild I feel a strange yearning not felt before; An uneasy rush has taken its toll. For something has stirred within my core; I feel something wild has taken me whole. Some untamed phantom has stealthily flown; Now prowling the chambers of my locked heart And with a grimace, though barely shown, Taunts me to follow and forsake my part. What apparition has disturbed my peace; What sinister deeds it plans for my soul? I pray to banish its presence and cease Its bewitching spell and a conquering role. But its cold, poisoned breath intoxicates, And the breath of my will within it entwined; Its razor-tipped wings would graze on the slates Adorned with tapestry my heart designed. It draws me to follow; its icy-gelled eyes Cast unsevered beams of relentless force That bind to my essence; plot my demise In its dreadfully singular course. Loneliness clutched my soul in its firm grip; A bat in the darkness of forest unknown. From shadow to shadow in anguish slip, Where no ray of light casts upon a stone. But a true love! -- It glows so fiery bright And bears the power to dispel the dark By its healing, warm, radiant light -- For that envoy of love shall find its mark. And so an elixir brewed by the force Of your love -- the potion of your single tear -- Descended upon that darkest source -- And dissolved the phantom of eternal fear. And something wild has released my soul… It lifted from darkness into your heart Where your true love embalmed it whole -- And our bond shall eternal light impart. CG |
