Till all else fails
And everything pales
And the soul has all but fled
Music will engulf me
At once greater and higher
Than I ever will be
But when we’re one
We will soar
To the memory of that tune
We will be the muse
Together, you and I my friend
We will conquer fear
Revel in the darkness
Dance the madness
Release the freedom
Till every moment stretches
To a fine balance
To the depths we will go
Till we can't anymore
And shatter
Into shards
Sharper than swords
Together you and I
When we find it hard to see
We’ll hide
From the light that hurts the eye
And let the darkness cloak us
Where the tune plays
Till there is time to stray
We will win and lose
And play the fool
And be the world’s dupe
And still the music will play
Together you and I
We will live
Till all the dances of this world are done
And then find another
Till seven times seven is none
Till beauty fails to sway
We will delay
Our stay
Till we can run no more
After every wild flower
Till we can love no more
The darkest corner of our hearts
Till we can feel no more
The exquisite pain of the world
Together you and I
We will sing
Till we empty all the poison
That throttles every heart
Till we can cry no more
For all we could have been
Till we can steal no more
Of these hours
From the hands of our jealous lords
Let us play
Together you and I my friend
We will leave it till the morrow
And return
To find it still
In the vale
That tune, that song playing
And I will knock on your door
Once more
And together you and I
Will sit
And discover the tune
Once again…

we will sing, and dance, and our souls will glow in all their glory.
it's that time of year, delilah.
and there is much music to savour.
a page in olive or a woman who captivates.the heart of a little girl or the words of a exhausted soul.the music tells of a past,and the words of a present..the moment though...just reconciles. to a safer path,in between the right and the wrong....if only music and friendships allowed room for mistakes...if only that 1 breathe was allowed its natural course.. the tunes would dance and the notes would bring back harmony... maybe to 2 restless souls or to a friendship that was almost famous ....hopefully the distance demon would disappear, the high note and its harmony would somewer seem to appear..those eyes, they would roll again & that left dimple would get its shot at mesmerising again.. Music would have found its lover in friendship and the olive would now just always seems so pink
