You strike a match to light a cigarette
Phosphorus tip crackling in the charged silence
Of a midnight room.
Smoke drifts into warm air
Weaving a pattern ceiling bound.
You wink.
Your eyes reveal the inner truth, but you remain innocent.
A wine glass, stained with lipstick,
Reminds me of efforts unfounded.
Mascara smudged to oblivion
For what I ask?
The loudest word is love unspoken
Perfectly formed but your lips dont move,
My lips won\'t move.
Stubborn, shy, scared possibly?
Come...
Seek refuge in my arms
Let us touch souls
Bring a rhythm to this life
And for just one moment in time
Let we two be one.
