Entwined in my soul and e m b o s s e d in my life,
you are the j o u r n e y and I am the t r a v e l l e r.
Your lips u n f o l d to bloom and beckon,
they have u n e n d i n g letters engraved as they sever,
I try to read but they e l u d e me,
are we like the s t a n z a s of an u n f i n i s h e d song?
All night I spin a yarn of your f a b r i c s o u l,
in the swings of my d e s i r e,
as I try u n t a n g l i n g those strings from your heart e n t a n g l e d in my fingers,
I wish to reach closer and closer to you,
but you e v a p o r a t e, you d i s s i p a t e,
like a w i l l-o'-t h e -w i s p.
