The Eyes Have It
I drank deeply from the dream in your eyes
As I danced in a moonless night with your soul
The music played at the edge of our ears, soft and slow
Like a pale remembrance lost in a lake
I knew the tune once
On a still summer's night watching with weighted bliss
The dance lasted longer than the music
That night
We just kept pressing our selves to our souls
Neither led nor followed
Each understanding the other's silent steps
As our atoms spun in time
Electrons mingling fussing about space
As we toured the galaxies within
I drank deeply from the dream in your eyes
As we continued on to the tuneless dance
We drank deeply from the soul of ourselves
As we nourished each other from wells deep set
And weren't satisfied with just that single sip
Our thirsts seemed unquenchable as we held each other
Locked together in the dance
Waiting for a shadow of the sun to start burning
But hoping dawn would not arrive on the edge
Of our thoughts
Gravity pulling us towards the center of the other
Knowing for a short time
One another's cells
I drank deeply from the dream in your eyes
Until it was a dream no more
