darkness

Darkness has fallen -
Fallen on me.
I look in your eyes
I can't remember
Who else I could be.

Should I have asked when
I took the cup that you
offered to me and
should I have looked, love
before I drank
so deeply

Darkness has fallen -
Fallen on me.
I look in your eyes
I can't remember
Who else I could be.

Should it have been bitter
instead of the salt
of the sea and
should it have burned
rather than
igniting me

Should I be searching
for a way back
to myself or
should I stay lost
in circles -
those endless circles -
we are a circle of
love and of hate and of
blood and of water
and love, pain, love

Darkness has fallen -
Fallen on me.
I look in your eyes
I can't remember
Who else I could be.

And I love your eyes.
