for someone in the shadows

For what rite shall we cross our swords?
A dance? Before what sort of tryst?
Why threaten me with negative,
In your promise of a new twist

To my existence? Dare I ask
Exactly what's in store for me,
If I succumb to your request,
Which I find irresistably

Compelling. Who, and what are you;
To dare sway an escort of Death?
To make me look another way?
To cause me to bestill my breath?

~You are to me what I never knew I wanted.
Giving me love and acceptance like no other.
To know your love is a comfort I find reassuring.~

Awakened from a childish dream,
A Passion so supreme it just unfolds.

A world that was not known to me,
Only joked about by those who don't know.

In this quest of mine to find answers I have more questions still.

'MY cocoon tightens, colors tease,
I ’m feeling for the air;
A dim capacity for wings
Degrades the dress I wear.

A power of butterfly must be
The aptitude to fly,
Meadows of majesty concedes
And easy sweeps of sky.

So I must baffle at the hint
And cipher at the sign,
And make much blunder, if at last
I take the clew divine.'

I am not playing....I have always admired you. I apologize if this bothers you...that was never my intention

oh no. it doesn't bother me at all. i just wish to know my admirer's identity. your (borrowed) words say something beautiful about you.

do you prefer privacy?
