Love Unchained

First I was alive then I became darkness,
I entered your dreams through a hidden door.
 
I followed the light until I saw my own skin glowing,
I saw myself for the first time in opalescence
of pure spirit, body removed.
Though there was light all around me,  
I was dark inside.
 
Here, time did not know me,  
I beckoned to you in an eternal way
and I felt you all around me  
like a joy that would surely fade
as birds to land then fly away.
 
I cannot follow them, I have found
my inner final resting place:
My head to lay on the damp ground
of your heart.
 
Among the crooked stones of testament,
I have only ever loved you this way:
To want to be fenced in with you.
 
Your stoneyard is my place to roam free,
it is a place where nothing matters any longer
where we are all we need to be;
it is a place where our love  
can finally be free.

I originally wrote this for the 'Ravens And Poets' comp, but I didn't get a chance to enter it in time. I've entered in into another comp hosted by GothicSurrealism, 'Rage, Rage Against The Dying Of The Light'
