In my dreams there is a river
Its current going north and south from where I can see
Boat silhouettes with bright lanterns
Are drifting around me

And in these boats are only shadows
Mere dark human forms
At their core they carry flames
A bright force that can be hidden, but not torn

Some carry within them only sparks
Dieing energy fighting to survive
While others carry a flame so rare
It has been said to cause explosions of colors to light up the sky

These flames they look for each other
I remember those days very well
A kindred spark, a twin glow
But I'm at the shore
And these days,
I'm more interested in those who ignite

So I hop from boat to boat
I watch each flame burn
And with every boat I enter,
I know I've left a spark behind
But only to receive another one back
Beauty attracts beauty,
So I find

Yet, it's been a while
And this time I find
Myself looking at a figure across the river,
On the other side

There is no sound,
There are no noises
Just two silhouettes who can't help but enjoy
The existence of each other's glow
