I have seen how quickly
forever can be,
in this life which never stops,
as her and I play silent games
never discussed
but we both know exist,
whispering softly to one another
during mad passionate lovemaking,
pretending not to notice
the shifting and rearranging
of roles and rules
which have stood from the beginning,
our souls touching those things
never before touched,
virgins in a virginless world,
innocents among the guilty,
seeking hidden truths
among dark and terrible days
which come forth
revealing venomous and blasphemous things
as they really are,
and she finally hears the song
which no one else has heard,
words which can never be said,
the final mask removed;
now
she has it all;
I give to her freely,
no longer afraid of the power she holds
to destroy all that there is,
as I beg for the final thrust
to end this ultimate lie,
this final denial;
it rises
for just a little while longer
.
