I have walked for many miles
just to see the sun
unknowingly searching for your face
never thinking I'd be done

you have seen me in the distance
you have felt my presence pass
you have marked every instance
thinking it might be the last

now you feel me coming
down this winding path
you have waited eagerly
I didn't have to do the math

For I have felt you watching
I know your roving gaze
no intention I, no stopping
our endless numbered days

Soon we'll touch each other
my god the world will stop
my enigma and your lover
only then will curtains drop

we will find our fire
we will step within
we will climb this pyre
away will slough away our skin

its the only way within
