From the Collection of "Portrait of My Lover" Paintings by Malcolm Deeley

On The Dark Side of Heaven

shadows dance,
silhouettes upon the night,
a dreamer drifts
to quiet sleep
as the moon
seeks to covet the seas,
waves of desire
crash against pale white skin,
a dance of lovers begins,

shadows cast
calls of pleasure
upon a cool wind
as the sun sleeps
on the other side of life,
a dreamer drifts
to restless sleep,
the essence of the dance
fills his imagination,
temptation's hand embraces
the fall of an angel
who dared to tread
on the dark side of heaven,

warm winds escape
from the windows edge
as a cool one flows back in,
shadows dance,
silhouettes upon the wall,
passion rises
then slowly it

falls,
    falls,
        falls,

drifting like a leaf
upon a soft breeze,
reaching its moment
of serenity as it lands -
over there -
on the water's edge,
washed out now to sea
as the moon courts the lovers,
waves of release escape
the captivation of the divine,
temptation's hand embraces the fall,
passions end, bodies spent,
embracing the moments spent here
on the dark side of heaven,

passion rises
then slowly it

falls,
    falls,
        falls,

to the shadows of two now one,
the night drifts away
on a cool wind
as the sun rises
over the edge of dawn
and lovers drift
to quiet dreams,
places of serenity
where silhouettes danced
on the dark side of heaven.

A most wonderful piece filled with many emotions running throughout as a river flows in its endless journey, most profound...

Be safe,
