kiss me somber
kiss my shadow when i知 fragile
and my evils are despairing
soon i値l radiate a flower bloom
to whom there痴 no comparing
open me again
from one forever til the next
i値l stay a stranger to these sacred
heart-beat wishes and regrets
i知 a shadow deep in fathoming
my perils unlamented
born majestic, an enchanted orb
still virgin to dissension
close my eyes again
and from forever til the end
i値l bliss the somber and forsaken
i値l feel imperfect and mistaken
and to never be the same
is not the same as when i change
is like the darkest sunny days
the rain keeps pouring
and i知 drowning in the sunlight
i知 so happy that i feel like i could die
in weeping tears of blessed sadness
i deserve only damnation
for the happiness
bestowed and yet only to be abated
by these darkest sunny days
the clouds obscure the rays of hope
winnowed
so very
plagued with plain and ordinary
yesterdays
and nowheres
when it seemed to seem like i was never there
