This night, this field of starlight,
we're just lost enough to be alone.
Curl your fingers in mine,
our unity is warming me.

My promise to you is freedom here.

So rare and precious, the growing peace within me... finding such inspiring creativity and genuineness in another soul is wholly awakening, illuminating even. Too long have I let it all go in apathy, harboring plenty of guilt, but barely a stitch of ambition. (Thankfully, just enough to put me in your path.) My youth is changing again. I'm realizing what strikes my chord of admiration. And I can hear my mother saying in her wisest philosophical tone, "life has to flow through you, Lily - too many people spend too much time wrapped up in their own heads." And I wonder about the implications of "too much thought, not enough feeling"; I wonder if it has hindered my connections in the past, or if its initial purpose of self-protection is just now expiring.

It's like the purest manifestation of expressive beauty when he spins. I can see his smooth movements when I close my eyes, the bright lights whirling in hypnotic patterns around him. Suddenly, I have no words.

I want to know you...
