Do not stand long
Beside me...
For I am not the answer,
But...the key.

Do not yearn for me,
For I am not the grey.
I am the shadow...
of your breath,
As it takes mine away.

Do not pillage my thoughts,
As I pour them out...
Upon the ground, before
You.
But cup your hands,
drink them,
Swallow them.

Tell me how they taste.

Do not lend me your heart,
For I have my own.
But bleed for me when,
My soul cries out...
In the darkness.

Do not capture the stars for me,
For my feet rest upon
The ground.
But lay your body
Beside mine until,
The earth mingles our
Flesh.

And once eternity calls,

Do not hesitate,
For I will be there.
Not as a fragment,
But as the completion.

A/N - Written in the style of Pablo Neruda.
