*The Dance of Forever*

She saw it.
The truth shone from his eyes.
Honesty lay within the words of distance.
Words written long before their time,
in sand, in leaves, in ashes
– she could read them.
And they carried with them a well known obsession.
A desire, muted by pain through the years.

She recognized him behind the mist of written lines.
There, at the timeless page,
in the moment when his fantasy, like a puzzle
fell into her own.

But it turned to be a plague.
She travelled roads, she burned, she froze.
She were grinded by a mill of distrust,
until her eyes became dark holes and her soul
felt no more.

Dissatisfied with the crumbs in life, she drunk
from the offered goblet.
She demanded a Dance of Forever
a promise, to be signed with blood.
He strteched out his arms, worn of loneliness
and gave away his bleeding heart.

She saw it.
She listened.
And it beat with love beyond the death.
