Moonlight Sonata

Let's dance.

I want to see your prance

Over bridges and water,

Crossing dust and mortar

-violin tunes

Curling runes...

Dance! Let's see who has the fastest feet

Let's see who has their maker to meet!

Red silk and ribbons of black

Pressure of your hands on my back

Making shapes where fireflies fly,

Air where no-one may touch us with lies

Free; open skies...

Let's go to sunsets of orange and purple

Take me to cloud skies where we can hurtle

Dance with me, dance with me sir

Dans les lits de les fleures, bien sur!

Twirl us round laughing, tears only sparkle

Never returning to the hallowing dark halls...

Shackles in splinters!

Feet cracked and blistered...

Lift me! To be a silhouette of the moon.

Let's chase away demons and devils and gloom.

Sun to come soon

Sway me until we come to the end.

A bow and a curtesy; our pride we defend.

Then pull me in close,

And whisper a toast

Blistering kiss

And the promise of bliss...

Awaken to find my own despair...

My heart still bruised, and in disrepair.

But then I hear the deadly click,

The sharpness of the needle prick.

And I dance away in your arms to the stars...

With this Moonlight Sonata of ours...
