Who Plays The Jester
I move within the light and shade drawn deep within
the dark displayed. Within words wild, unharnessed.
And we to the dream descend like lovers, dark and
formless. The sudden kiss of rod and reed. And then,
the bitter, silent freeze. That seals our souls by slow
degrees. A silence falls, and a void remains. Sweet
poison flowing in our veins. Who is the fool? Who is
the wise? Who plays the jester in disguise? The
feelings are cold. The movements are slow.

I really like the way you use rhyme here. Such a mysterious piece... the game of love and all its emotional turmoil.
