Nicky McNeil - Before Our Beginning

Another rainy night brings about old dreams and new memories
The kind of brooding that simultaneously serve to haunt and inspire
My beloved, you are at once so close to me yet so very distant
I don’t know which torments most, the nearness or the indifference



So here I wait patiently for you to walk back into this our room
to come over here beside me, ever so shyly and softly, yet with desire
then to let your forgotten passion again guide your hands and your heart
the way we both did, so very long ago, before we first became lovers
