Close Your Eyes
THOMAS RAINER
Embraced in somber darkness
Muted and blinded by desire
Thoughts flow into nothingness
The mortal shell burns on the pyre
Two bodies they float into one
The world around us fades
Like in the evening does the sun
In our small cascades
Close your eyes and come with me
Into my own reality
Where no chains do bind our souls
Where we can roam eternally
No fear does trap us in this hour
Nothing holds us back tonight
Come with me my fragile flower
March with me towards the light
Don't be shy, this little pain
Is just the price you have to pay
It's oh so small, for what you gain
These are the final words I say
