Love in Bohemia
By Ben Nardolilli
I've given you
All the darkness I have,
Now I'm empty for real,
Give me some of your light,
It must be there,
I followed you all these days
And miles, hoping for a spark,
We managed fires without them,
But I'm tired of rubbing sticks,
I just want the flames, this time
Without all the burning.
I've given you
All the darkness I have,
Now I'm empty for real,
Give me some of your light,
It must be there,
I followed you all these days
And miles, hoping for a spark,
We managed fires without them,
But I'm tired of rubbing sticks,
I just want the flames, this time
Without all the burning.




Loved this, Ben!

This made me sigh. So much truth in these words, distilled, refined, poignant. Thank you.
