• Don't you ever say that I forgot you.
    Don't you ever accuse me of fading to the wind.
    Because I stand here,
    Waiting,
    Open arms from so long ago...
    Two and a half years,
    Was it?
    You left me behind then,
    Yet still those ten precious numbers
    Refused to fade from my mind.
    I love you.
    I hated you.

    Yet here I stand,
    Naked and unadorned,
    Tears of joy down my face
    As our song assaults my ears...
    "I am ready," I whisper.
    As you pull me into darkness.

    Let us dance, in darkness.
    Dance again with me, my love...
    Dance through the blackened flames
    Over the ashes of what was dead,
    Dance and chant and celebrate the pain
    Of the life we build together...
    And take wings into the smoky, hazy future,
    Of what is to be.
    Of the things we refuse to think about.

    Take these chains and cover me,
    Drag me back to earth crying out,
    So that I as blind as you,
    Will stumble along the paths of darkness.
    Consume me in the flesh,
    And let me know who you are,
    Master.

    I will never leave you,
    As the black sticky tar over my heart drips away
    And I open myself to the agony of the darkness,
    I will not betray
    All that I have come to believe.

    I love you, with all of my soul
    Whatever remnant of life remains within it
    Cries out for you, even now.
    I dream of a moment we can embrace again.
    How long will it be
    Until the darkness we share is in the same space
    Until the passion we share wears the face of the flesh
    And becomes more than ethereal?
    I will wait, my love.
    I will wait for you
