Your name

you are hell and heaven,

the words from a spell

mystifying, lurid,

fantastical.

you are a spiritual venture,

the essence of higher self

captivating, infinite,

subliminal.

a tick on the clock

a highly awaited knock

another minute or two

and I'll have fallen for you

you are Venus at dawn,

the moon before dusk

illuminating, hypnotic,

wimsical.

you are a breath underwater,

the vacuum of space

breathtaking, beseiging,

harrowing.

a façade; what I see not

a click, then a shot

another second or so

and I'll have fallen below

all in the name of you.
