I have a story, of a boy, looking much like me. He looks for someone. Somewhere Anywhere He finds no one
Paris is too hot, so he leaves for London Slipping in and out of clubs, cringing in the loud music, drinking drinking
The last club he stands at the bar and a beautiful Spanish girl comes to him smiling and whispers "Would you like to meet a Prince?" then laughs and dances away
Remind me not, remind me not, Of those beloved, those vanish'd hours, When all my soul was given to thee; Hours that may never be forgot, Till time unnerves our vital powers, And thou and I shall cease to be.
I follow and there he is. Smiling We have met before I say He smiles and remembers Can I forget --- canst thou forget, When playing with thy golden hair, How quick thy fluttering heart did move? Oh ! by my soul, I see thee yet, With eyes so languid, breast so fair, And lips, though silent, breathing love.
Too loud in the club She dances away, holding onto him We leave My hotel The suite is large and beautiful, more so with them there.
When thus reclining on my breast, Those eyes threw back a glance so sweet, As half reproach'd yet raised desire, And still we near and nearer prest, And still our glowing lips would meet, As if in kisses to expire.
Drinking Kisses All three, for a moment, then she was asleep Small than we two, her head on his shoulder As he carried her to the bed And came back to me
And then those pensive eyes would close, And bid their lids each other seek, Veiling the azure orbs below; While their long lashes darken'd gloss Seem'd stealing o'er thy brilliant cheek, Like raven's plumage smooth'd on snow.
His eyes so blue..azure blue Smiling, kissing me, thinking he must give more Drinking with me and feeling A connection, a kinship in Byron Who would have guessed and we dance
I dreamt last night our love return'd, And sooth to say, that very dream Was sweeter in its phantasy, Than if for other hearts I burn'd, For eyes that ne'er like thine should beam In rapture's wild reality.
We kissed while we danced, long deep And then it was done and we sat, talking Until he left too Lulled by sleep and I watched him breathe Until I went too
Then tell me not, remind me not, Of hours which, though for ever gone, Can still a pleasing dream restore, Till thou and I shall be forgot, And senseless, as the mouldering stone Which tells that we shall be no more.
Once was not enough They woke up and we all had the morning meal together, before they left and waved Both kissing my cheek His eyes lingering, her smile knowing My heart wanting more
