Delilah’s Last Love

Song Cycle by Andreia Pinto-Correia (b. 1971)

2.   [sung text not yet checked]

Language: English 
I long for madness,
for the strong that comes from the sweet letting go,
like a snip of the lock
from the hair
where your power to slaughter my people lay nestled in your whorls.
