Sexo e Luz

Sex and Light
When the Sun
Lowered
On such a monotonous day,
Passion
Left me
Astonished.
Took me
Out of the routine,
And in a unique moment,
Changed
My destiny
Suddenly.
There,
I left the valley of my torment,
And went
To fall into the lake of your love;
There,
I relieved all my suffering,
And oh,
I found myself moaning with pleasure as well as pain.
Finally, I let out
A scream;
And in you, I was one
With the infinite.
And in the sky
Of my self,
In the innermost, in the core,
It ignited
A clear
Lightning.
At the peak,
In moments
That seemed like centuries,
I bathed
And washed myself
In sex and light.
Then,
Beyond the mountain, beyond the horizon,
Oh yes,
Beyond the world, beyond reason,
Oh no,
I drank from the bottomless well, from the
Endless
Well of desire, the source of passion.
Finally, I let out
A scream;
And in you, I was one
With the infinite.
