The roar of life found itself once again
Captured in a human-sized container
through baptism of love and blood.

I dreamt of you seated on the sideline.
As I came closer, Audrey,
I kissed your cheek.

Sylvian's "Heartbeat" echoed ours and
pulsed through our bodies.
Pain allowed pleasure it's portion.

My heart spilled into your beautiful eyes,
milk flowed to your rosebud lips.
My sweet soul, sweet soul.
