Spoiler! :
Showers of golden light, and
the evening blends to night.
Here I am,
and there you are,
and I need you,
need to be with you.
Listen to the music
of acoustic musicians, and feel
the comfort of worn wool hats,
the sound of cheap guitars
and makeshift drums.
I have on too much eyeliner and
a smudged red lip,
but you don't seem to mind.
I guess I'm yours.
I guess you're mine.
Let's dance into the light,
even though we've never been taught how.
But we manage, don't we?
We manage on our own.
Dance is something in our blood,
not taught in a studio.
We dance without teaching.
We sing without notes.
And you're too skinny
and I'm too strange
but we mix well together
in an oil-and-water sort of way.
I always liked how the orbs stood out
and floated in the midst.
I'm floating in you, with you.
I need you,
and you need me.
But, most of all, I need you.
It's not enough to see this in a still-frame,
not enough to glimpse it from the back window
of a hastily fleeing automobile.
We need to be in it,
to be part of it,
to sing with a thousand hopeful voices
and spiral off into the light.
I will always live in the high notes
of a piano, flickering for a second
and then vanishing into thin air,
leaving behind a sweet essence of lavender.
And you will always live in the back of my mind
as I remember the day the Harvest moon rose
over the field, and we were bathed in sunflower light.
And you were too skinny,
and I was too strange,
but we mixed well together.
Let's remember that day.
