My bunkered heart explodes
a billion brilliant pieces
bursting forth like muffled snow
my unversed thoughts
like tongue-tied kisses
finding here their reformation
spiked against your chapel heart
frescoes of undressed emotion
coloured strokes now tear apart
chamber walls of separation
a train of thought through mist appears
and echoes from a dreamy station
removing now the virgin fear
of sights once seen in dark illusion
yet now beheld as vision clear
you and me on amber aisle
where walk we will
with longings frail
aeonian plain or holy hill
naked yes but no more shame
