Possession

Listen as the wind blows from across the great divide

voices trapped in yearning, memories trapped in time

the night is my companion, and solitude my guide

would I spend forever here and not be satisfied?

And I would be the one

to hold you down

kiss you so hard

I’ll take your breath away

and after, I’d wipe away the tears

just close your eyes dear

Through this world I’ve stumbled

so many times betrayed

trying to find an honest word to find

the truth enslaved

oh you speak to me in riddles

and you speak to me in rhymes

my body aches to breathe your breath

your words keep me alive

Into this night I wander

it’s morning that I dread

another day of knowing of

the path I fear to tread

oh into the sea of waking dreams

I follow without pride

nothing stands between us here

and I won’t be denied

just close your eyes.
