.........Ascending ...............

By venom leaving there you deceive me

Taken to be free for a moment then flee

As in time ascending watching me bleed

Broken within on knees fall onto eternity

Come closer softly steal my breath from me

By words left unspoken yours again in taking

Gazing eyes gleaming smiling joy in my dying

In your ancient desires rage becomes your fire

For time no longer matters belonging to destiny

For love became a word lost unspoken to unheard

And by all the years taken descending reminding me

As every road traveled always lead me back to you
