The Surrender

(Phantom Trilogy 3 of 3)

 

Him:

 

You have come here

In pursuit of your deepest urge

In pursuit of that wish which till now has been silent

Silent

 

I have brought you

That our passions may fuse & merge

In your mind you've already succumbed to me

Dropped all defenses, completely succumbed to me

Now you are here with me, no second thoughts

You've decided, decided

 

Past the point of no return

No backward glances

Our games of make-believe are at an end

Past all thought of if or when

No use resisting

Abandon thought & let the dream descend

What raging fire shall flood the soul?

What rich desire unlocks its door?

What sweet seduction lies before us?

 

Her:

 

You have brought me

To that moment where words run dry

To that moment where speech disappears into silence

Silence

 

I have come here

Hardly knowing the reason why

In my mind I've already imagined our bodies entwining, defenseless & silent

Now I am here with you, no second thoughts

I've decided, decided

 

Past the point of no return

No going back now

Our passion play has now at last begun

Past all thought of right or wrong

One final question

How long should we two wait before we're one?

When will the blood begin to race?

The sleeping bud bursts into bloom?

When will the flames at last consume us?

 

Them:

 

Past the point of no return

The final threshold

The bridge is crossed, so stand & watch it burn

We've passed the point of no return
