Breathing Rapture - Le Loup

Oh, love is shaped like cities burning

Soot and ash is stretched between

The sea and sky;

these lonely islands

Kiss the buildings, black and silent

Here my eyes look towards the brightest

Point of light, like some great sign

And know the love--

I was reminded of the time I almost died

But do remind you close your eyelids

See the fine good colors that are left behind

Like flaming fingers tracing lines, it’s kinda like that

Oh, love is shaped like cities burning

Sifting through the ashes after

We will find your life in laughter

Oh, the black and breathing rapture
