"Intersect" - lyrics Jon Edwards, 2022
…
STANZA I
in destined lines we intersect
affections light in darkness collect
here - you to me, me to you
does it matter the order as long as it's true?
STANZA II
you know it’s not the journey
when the moments’ been said and done
we coalesce into you and me
still conquered much to glory
with resolve and lovingly won
STANZA III
in shadows where we found ourselves
me upon my knees and at yours fell
look up to you with tear-lined promise be
hearts aligned and tendered perfectly
CHORUS
the past is only what we’ve traced
in fiery bold conquer and erase
life’s impassive cold - in this we’ve proved
the world’s on fire yet we made love
STANZA IV
spelled wordlessly in colored lights
in flowered gardens, world’s wondrous sights
our hands entwine and eyes affirm
illumined artwork, lines upon lines
crosses in kisses, in divinity’s signs
BRIDGE
oh how you must wonder
all this love and thunder
by now I know you’ve seen
how these lines have brought us here
prepared his artful hand upon this scene
intention’s innocent and sincere
lines stitched upon tapestry
in stars pulsing course
an irresistible force
barrels forward inevitably
what was and what's to be
CHORUS
STANZA V
and in comfort’s quiet we will sit
listen to the shimmer in the very air
a tapestry of moments and light we’ve knit
before us an open frontier
