Point Of No Return

Past the point
of no return –
no backward glances:
the games we’ve played
till now are at
an end …
Past all thought
of “if” or “when” –
no use resisting:
abandon thought,
and let the dream
descend …

What raging fire
shall flood the soul?
What rich desire
unlocks its door?
What sweet seduction
lies before
us …?

Past the point
of no return,
the final threshold –
what warm,
unspoken secrets
will we learn?
Beyond the point
of no return …

Past the point
of no return –
no going back now:
our passion-play
has now, at last,
begun …
Past all thought
of right or wrong –
one final question:
how long should we
two wait, before
we’re one …?

When will the blood
begin to race
the sleeping bud
burst into bloom?
When will the flames,
at last, consume
us …?

Past the point
of no return
the final threshold –
the bridge
is crossed, so stand
and watch it burn…
We’ve passed the point
of no return…
