The Circle Opens

This is something I wrote about a person who I care for who is very interesting and captivating, but yet we are just too different that I don't think it would work out between each other. For Shiri.

Two separate souls meet

Down by the riverside they roam

Colliding with each other

Their pulses beat in rhythm alone

Two divided entities scatter

Among troubled waters one stirs

By night they tend to gather

One awakens to shoulder the burns

They meet suddenly inspired

One calming the dragon that snaps

And within burning embers

Snakes eel their way biting attacks

Swimming in constant motion

One delves the secrets of the blue

The dragon hisses seductively

Only fish can sway melting the hue

Coming together in a dream

Water boiling with fast submission

Recalling every ounce unseen

Fire coils up inside bounding remission

Two different souls divide

Into the night they sing their song

Two separate wholes collide

Dreams whisking the two along

Two hearts fight the other

Bringing out dark inside of the light

Knowing their not together

Two pulses rocking into shining night
