Just for one moment
cheek to cheek
soul to soul
I am you and you, me
We, that strange, wond'rous word
unite to face the world
Together, intertwined,
crushed boneless and healed back as one
being of
us.
Just for one moment -
but it is enough.

~*~*~*~ the amethyst has risen ~*~*~*~

Red floats everywhere I turn
Blooming, bursting, splattering
Crimson and scarlet flitting about
Can't catch 'em, can't handle 'em
They've enveloped my entire being
Filling me, swirling red
Rage
No heart for this little girl
only black ribbons the color of
nothing
that stops swarming horror at
me.

~*~*~*~ the amethyst has risen ~*~*~*~

If only the world was world was square
and the stars flit about in green streams
and fish shone in the purple sky
and red flames wafted in the technicolor breeze
and blades of gray crackled merrily
and we had no worries
no cares
no needs
no boundaries
but our sky is blue
and the grass is green
and this world is too round
and the wind whispers too softly
so I don't whisper back.
