Love Amidst the Blaze

(Written Saturday, October 15, 2011. Hey, radicals need love too.)


Oh, where are you?
You know of whom I speak.
How far are you
away from my silent sleep?
I only know you through shades of grey
and shadows within my mind.
I awake to teary stains
and resignation's sigh.

Why do you
haunt my only escape?
Is it true
that dreams have truths to make?
'Cause I could have sworn my heart was right
when it decided to give up the wait.
And now it seems like the other side
is where it wants to stay.

There's miles and miles
of hopeless ground
that we all have to chase.
Could you please
escape my dreams
and join me in the blaze?

There's powers strong
but we're reborn
when we die to yesterday.
We could dance at night
after the fight
and paint each other's way.

Oh, where are you?
They separate our lives
invisible
imaginary lines.
But mind is free even when asleep
and we meet face to face.
They want retreat and silent speech
but we'll love amidst the blaze.
We'll free entire days
to live in joyous ways.
Oh, we'll love amidst the blaze.
