Untangle this love for me.
Help me unravel the beginning and the end,
Collect the moments that we shared
And find the time that we misplaced,
So we can never forget.

Help me to reconcile this feeling
Of gaining but loosing,
Of having but missing,
Of distance and closeness
That I find myself in.

Untangle this love for me.
Tell me why I miss you
On a night like this,
Why do I remember
Each touch and each kiss
Uncovering gently
Every desire that I hid;

Why the constellations remind me
Of the lines of your lips,
Why the stars fall like fire,
Engulfed in desire,
When you come close to me.

Untangle this love for me.
Play it chord by chord,
And caress each string.
Help me put into words that it never felt like this,
Help me re-write the story,
And prevent our hearts from being broken,
So we can stay right here.

I want to fall, to feel,
To explore and to see,
To write poems on your skin
And get lost somewhere in between.
I want to surrender and dream,
Entangled together,
Just you and me.

A.V.O.
