Meeting

 

no one shall remember

no one shall forget, all

in these lies, the movement

of shadow, across the day

in rooms so pleasing, in night

your teasing eyes seek to move

the moon, from east to west

across the mid-summer night’s skies

to where our eyes shall meet

in memory, so fleet to the skin

as touch does cross our lips

in the wind, of movement

the shadows swell, for me and you

the day in night, shall falter no more

as your skin, on skin, drenched

in a taste, a touch of morning

across the bay, in light so shall I see

in the glisten of water, reflecting

all, so in my memory, in the day before

when truth came to reason, when reason

turned to song, and in your song

so my ears learned, learned to listen

in silence so the night, feeling all

that came down from our flight

high in these skies, before truth

before our hearts could realize

that words in one, shall one day

seize in two, two words for the night

no one shall remember, that

in two words, our hearts remain true

true as the day, before the night breathes

its life, onto the souls of the many

the few, far and between, in the blackened

skies, come true, in skin before our lies

reach the heavens, reach the stars far

far away, are we not to touch that in space

that in night, where truth knows no name

give time but to be, give time, so shall we

will see, that all our love, all our light

does remain in two, before the day

and through the night, it is with wonder

so shall I say, wonder is but a motion

quick and still, through a wave, the wind

comes softly, touches your face

through your skin, down in our sight

where our eyes see the day, and our hearts

touch the night
