Moments With Her

lyrics

She has become the only song left in my soul,
The only way my incomplete being can make its whole,
Moments with her.

I am lost by the clock if I be not found in her arms,
I am collector and connoisseur of her endless charms,
Moments with her.

I was there when she invented time and stopped it,
I had all the baggage of eternity and I just dropped it,
Moments with her.

The world’s desolation becomes the field of deliverance,
My ambitions a toy and thing of indifference,
Moments with her.

She is reified wonder; when I have been tuned to static,
She is my freestyle agenda when the world seems automatic,
I don’t know what love is if not the slogan of her kiss,
And her sweet reasonings that keep me from my own abyss,
She’s my little punk-rock-princess straddling the corpse of her victim,
Thrashing her beautiful golden hair like a whip to the back of the system,
From my being to my bones she lights the points of contact,
Keeps me to the front lines in my self-surviving combat,
If I could live a thousand ages to taste a thousand lips,
I could have no greater role if I surveyed a thousand scripts.

You see I’ve tried time after time to say how much I love her,
Only to sing my praise in vain because each day I think more of her.

July 14
For Rebecca
