Under His Light

Like sunlight on winterskin
Such is the pleasure he brings
Down, down, down to the
High-pitched sound of insect-like
Buzzing machines
Will he be waiting for me?

Bottles of ink and parchments
Of glory, all testify to the
Intricate story that slowly unfolds
In my mind
How could I not bath him in light?

Yet, true is the heart that asks
For nothing in return
I can't tell him how I feel
Just abandon all hope as I lean back
And close my eyes
There are scars in the evening sky.

Green is the light of the
Healing heart or the demon
That tears you apart
Down, further down to the
Ever soothing sound
Of busily humming machines
He had not been waiting for me.

The autumn-flower of spring
Knows that hope is a terrible thing
Content with what little may come
His hands are warm like the sunlight
Dancing on pale winterskin
I cherish the pleasure he brings to me.
