A Cappella

Play for us.
Sweet sonatina: a moment from your soul.

Play us.
Like water: take that which you need.

Play.
Da Capo: we are frozen in your time.

In the rain – diminuendo
We ride along your crest.
Take us where you travel.
Lead us where you will.

Play for us.
Flurry of fingers: a smoldering of strings.

Play us.
Like thunder: demanding our restless ear.

Play.
A Cappella: stand alone and tell us your tale.

We are listening.

Her Immortal
(Nicolas and Eleni)

Do you delight in her frailty as she cuts
Her heart open for you? – Watch it drip
Like hot butter
See that she waits, a patient tide
The ocean of forgiveness.

Do you smile at her tentative steps to seek
A dream within reach?
You pull back,
She touches you lightly
Sad little fingers.

Do you laugh as she falls
Perfectly in time with you
And both are head long,
Steadfast into darkness
You, crushing her close.

Do you see what it is,
That binds you together,
Trapped in forever ending
Torment and bliss?
The way out is sealed shut.

You a master; her lover
Her demon in hot pursuit
Your passion – a river,
Flows through her vessel
A torrent of desires.
