And I See Your Beating Heart In The Setting Sun

Marked by clouds
Concealing stars
And all the lovely tattered dreams we shared
In a daze of altered states including love
Fermented by hope and pain
I held your youth in my hand
Your eyes revealed the depths of your beauty
Which cannot be betrayed
My body against yours
Your full womanhood against me
The private things we shared that only we know
A love for us alone
No one else existed in the room
You are my daughter
And my wife
My sister
And my lover
Forever in my heart
Cutting my soul out with a knife
A smile of relentless seduction on your face
Addicted to you for a lifetime
It could not be any other way
And I see your beating heart in the setting sun
Your beautiful dress fluttering in the breeze
My heroine for all to see
I know you have faith in me
Protectively watching me
My queen on high
You belong to the world
