dusk and the night
and
you and iall the you's blend
and for once
the world is containedin arms so long
and blood so warm
and a chest like homeall the you's in me
and all the me's in you
and it's only humanthat we are
odes to the shimmering light
petals and flakesoh you,
so lovely in my arms
for nowso lovely in the trees
after that
but that is alsoyou and me
and
me and youand we shall never wholly die
