Persephone's Dream

Silhouette

Persephone's Dream


Thick smoke rises into the pregnant air 
Across the dark skyline 
Dense music pours onto the crowded streets 
Across the damp bricks 
Gray mist crawls slowly towards the shore 
Across the silent river 

Two lovers walk hand in hand 
Nightbloom flowing around them 
Lost to the world, Lost in the mist 
Lost to those who would follow 
Lost in the shadows, 
Never missed 

Perfume and musk hang heavy in the damp air 
Across the satin sheets 
Passion and pleasure chase each other into the night 
Across the humid city 
Half moon slowly rides into the clouds 
Across the shadows 

Two lovers stare eye to eye 
Emotions passing between them 
Lost to the night, Lost in the mist 
Lost to the reflection of life 
Lost in the moment, 
They kiss 

Two lovers touch flesh to flesh 
Desire flowing through them 
Lost in the pleasure, Lost in his touch 
She removes her silk and bracelet 
Into history they cast a silhouette
