And the two of us there

We'll never know whether our encounter was effect or mere1 cause
ownership or just our own nakedness
our bodies side by side like parallel strokes marking a pause
in the silence that floats without gravity.
 
There has been no pact, no promise, no agreement,
everything is always just a matter of chance
and then every moment is like the first one and there is no afterwards that's not a memory
as in dreams, outside reality.
 
In the cold, still, white darkness of the wine that helps us know each other
one does not know about the other, who she is, who she will be
but we choose each other because of something that's in the heart, in the head and between our legs
to part ways as we are in a tie, always
 
Only the skies to cover us
and an obsession with infinity
 
Love without the troubles of love
its space is everywhere, its time is never
if you read it line by line you live a story you already know
yet you dream, if you open the book of lives on a random page.
 
Love that has no where or why
a voice that says nothins and stays between me and you
the two of us roaming along borders
roads with no beginning and no end
like the two of us, there
the two of us there
 
Outside a fresh day dawns and there's a new wind that can be seen but not heard
there's one last star to grab before leaving
now even a kiss is a trick to prevent you from speaking
because the night is a game of shadows and a world that spies on us
 
In the full emptiness of an interior
as in an everlating present
that love without the troubles of love
its space is everywhere, its time is never
if you read it line by line you live a story you already know
yet you dream, if you open the book of lives on a random page.
 
Love that has no where or why
a voice that says nothins and stays between me and you
the two of us roaming along borders
roads with no beginning and no end
like the two of us, there.
 
Who knows if we are real
the two of us there
or two rmote reflections
the two of us there
visions or perhaps thoughts
the two of us there
or poetry and songs
the two of us there
we are yesterday's future
the two of us there
that becomes past tomorrow.
 
Us, those of love without the troubles of love
its space is everywhere, its time is never
if you read it line by line you live a story you already know
yet you dream, if you open the book of lives on a random page.
 
Love that has no where or why
a voice that says nothins and stays between me and you
the two of us roaming along borders
roads with no beginning and no end
like the two of us, there.
