The New Beginning

I want to touch you
Reach into your night
Drink of the stillness
You harbour inside

I want to bewitch you
With deep tender voice
Make you forgetful 
Of everything else

No more of the lies 
We once believed
Held us together
Gave us our ease

We crossed the bridge
And then we burned
We are transparent 
Now that we're here 

Gladness abounds
Just look around
But for us dear
It must be a choice

  1. Nice rhythm to this. "We crossed the bridge and then we burned..." Cool imagery and I like the resolution in the final stanza.
