Just Bliss

In shining alley partner to share dark nights
To be the one to share my improbability

While I tell him lies, he to tell me the truth
He to share all seasons of my temperament

I be inaccessible to him, he is to be mine
If I collapse he’s to be close to me to pits

He to be valued linking my forename
To share my disgrace from lane to lane

I see my own self; he’s to keep seeing me
He shares my instinctive covetousness

If he dreams, may dream concerning me
So to share my entire illustrative thought
