“pompeii”

i think it goes as far back as cleopatra

the first life you were my source of rapture

i recognize in the ashes of pompeii

how you used to let your fire reign over me

in this instant, my love is that of lava

a grounded desire that melts as i get hotter

i remember the day i said i truly want you

it was my first day alive, after 10,000 dark nights

years ago, i received a dream i was worshipped by you since our first love-scene

ignored all signs of explosion, but in the moment i just couldn’t take the heat, i released

as if a prophecy, you became obsessed with me

you are the divine embodied, you are love energy

many have their eyes on you

not a heart nor soul a match for me

the false may delay, but cannot deny what is meant to be

i’ll be there to wash you clean

after the storm, i’ll reinitiate everything
