I want You In It

​wine and music
recollections
old affections
what's your story
what's your story now
I used to know
a bit of it
and you knew mine
but did you know
how you got me
no one ever came so close
to understanding
all
that I hold
in this restless, sacred, ancient
soul

why did I come like this
back to this realm again
if not for us?
then what
...I miss you
by my side
every day 
each night
the way we've spent
so many lives

every lifetime
better with you...
always so much better with you.
I'm not ashamed to admit
I've got this present life to live
and I want you
in it
I want you in it.
goddamn how I want you in it.

blue eyes
ancient ties
look deep enough
you'll realize
your dark eyes were meant
to stare right in to mine
want to lose myself in your darkness again
it grounds me
surrounds me
frees me
if you need me

still

I'm here.
