Description

I have been spared another day

to come into this night

as though there is a mercy in things

mindful of me. Love, cast all

thought aside. I cast aside

all thought. Our bodies enter

their brief precedence,

surrounded by their sleep.

Through you I rise, and you

through me, into the joy

we make, but may not keep.
