"The Vanishing Point"




I feel motion from without, 
The moon set in place,
The earth standing still, 
Dare I rise to meet you again, 
A change of fate,
And hold crystal these shattering eyes

I close every door and stroke the wall
Prayers for help, given  me something,
Prayers for this to end well,
But I cannot move.
I am frozen lying still before
The immortal hone of fire and steel
An unearthly tone, 
A fawning cry, 
And velvet hands all I do feel.

You are enveloped in light, 
An atmosphere deep blue
As the image passes softly through
Disaster just touching, 
A staggering animal
A vertical head, 
And I walk toward you

This could be the bludgeoning demise
This could be the end of all things
But I'll be fed to hungry dogs,
All of us thrown to the kennel's teeth,
If you aren't here, 
My love, O' my love

I have found you in dreams,
Holding tight to your hand
The sky turning green, 
The winds shifting below
This cannot he happening! 
I must never let go!
