Valentine

From the first point, in the depths of your heart
Comes the wind of love, the seed of evil things

An ancient force of darkness, it waits and slowly crawls
Until the time is ripe
She will materialise and personalize your agonising lust
The first time I saw her, centuries ago
Our eyes were locked in the prison where I remain

Valentine, in blood I sign
This letter to you, written on the wind

Though my flesh walks free, my heart and mind still linger
In that moment long ago, the first point

It’s a moment that exists for all of us
It cuts through the heart of all who walk the Earth

Valentine, in blood I sign
This letter to you, written on the wind

It’s a moment that exists for all of us
It cuts through the heart of all who walk the Earth
We take a hand, we steal a kiss
And we embrace like it is the end
But the end does not arrive
And the water flows on where the river bends
Not where you want it to go

My heart, forever yours
