As Naked As An Angel

And under the current laws
Filling our minds with misguided shelter
I do not want to be the one
Who takes it for granted by night
That these rebel thoughts forsake us
Driving us into blind ambition through hope
Perhaps you have always been freer than me
A mad aristocracy devoid of reason
Hypocrisy abandons wisdom
We all do what we must
Suffering pleasure at sunset
Why must it be denied
Because we hide behind propriety
The sun is at odds with the moon
We worship the sky above us
Waiting for a sign of absolution
This is a private sojourn
I have seen you
As naked as an angel
These times are etched in my mind
Configuration of desire
I see the pure designation of image
Your fresh bloom is experienced
A fluid river flowing ceaselessly
Beyond mansions beyond love
In the stark fluorescent light
The darkness of your beauty
Reminiscent of a dream
Freedom
