Talk with me
We'll paint picture with our words
Or make a beautiful silence
That's deafeningly quiet

Walk with me
We'll travel far to the new
Or remain true to the old
Lost in the known

Listen with me
We'll enjoy the music of the crowds
Or we'll make our own
Off beat rhythms

Live with me
We'll be fantastic together
Or we'll fade away with the rest
Into invisible brilliance

Sit with me
We'll never once meet in this life
Or you can turn this moment
Into an eternity
