It’s not a cry that you hear at night.
It’s not someone who’s seen the light
It’s a cold and it’s a broken hallelujah.

My first love
From the moment we became alive
We ceased to exist
Flowing into one another, the WE disappeared into the one
Our hearts beat through the centuries
Through the rising of sun and moon, in a never ending circle
Beginnings and endings just man made interruptions
One and timeless
Echoed through the night sky
One and timeless
Rippled through the streams
One and timeless
Howled in the wind
Yet it was just a beautiful lie.
Time is a silent stalker
Waiting to bare its claws
In an instant, innocence was ripped away
In an instant, the One was rent in two
In that instant I grew up, no more a child
Time exacted its revenge
I died, yet I live on
Through meaningless days I refuse to count
I tuck you away into the recesses of my soul
Vague remembrances of scent and taste, interlacing the sweet and salty
I turn away for fear you will bubble up from below, overflow into the present
Afraid I will perish completely
I turn to the living
I turn to flesh and blood
To hugs and kisses and laughing out loud
To picnics and parties and dancing for joy
To new friends and new lovers
My life….. a beautiful lie.
