it was me peering through the looking glass beyond the embrace of christ like the secret face within the tapestry like a bird of prey over the crest and she was swathed in sorrow as if born within its mask her candlelight snuffed the icon smiled emptiness followed in her wake i could clasp her in undying love within ghostlike rapture the final word was mine she faced me in awe twas a token of ebony colour embodied in faint vapour wandering through april s fire compelled to grasp and to hold the one that was you compelled to grasp and to hold the one that was you i will endure hide away i would outrun the scythe glaring with failure it is a mere destiny i thought a threshold i had crossed before the rain was waving goodbye and when the night came the forest folded its branches around me something passed by and i went into a dream she laughing and weeping at once take me away i don t know how or why i ll never know when3
