PEARL
DAVE THE POET

I just want to feel, As much as I can
That’s what souls, Are all about
Even if it’s, Only for a short time
Can’t take it with you
While I was here, It was mine
If you and I, Are all we got
Rather have, Than have not

Persona non grata, Your mother said
Stay away, Be better off dead
You stole my heart, Love at first sight
Didn’t need others, To make us right

Climb through your window, Hold you tight
Separated by day, Entangled at night
Me dressed in leather, You draped in lace
Silence was golden, Fruit forbidden
Together alive, Apart barely liven

They sent you away, I followed
Freedom embraced, Control hollowed
Secrets kept, Passion unknown
Completing each other, Blood from a stone
What God joins, Man can’t destroy
Rebuilding walls, Behind which to hide
I dream of you naked, Angel of my dreams
Full blown addiction
In another world, We’d still be we

I just want to feel, As much as I can
That’s what souls, Are all about
Even if it’s, Only for a short time
Can’t take it with you
While I was here, It was mine
If you and I, Are all we got
Rather have, Than have not
