The Anticipation

The anticipation

A slight nervous tension

A moment of hesitation

The intensity of prolonged silence

As we gaze at our reflection

I see you

You see me.

One step forward

Two steps back

Stroking embers fire dance

One step forward

One step back

Locked in ancient battle stance

Two mystic warriors

Of darkness and light–

A derelict King lost in his reverie

A Queen aloof and trapped in her sorcery

Together again

Piecing antiquated compositions

Dangerous liaisons

Guarded masks

A taste only quenched

From Forbidden Fruits

If you kiss me

Awaken you shall

To existence without reason

Only truth and vulnerability

Will set you free

‘Tis the curse of my reality

Despierte mi querido

Wake up my darling.
