the golden lights that danced
inside her eyelids as she drifted,
sleepless from exhaustion,
were his, now hers.

she watched them long enough
to see a new day blossom
living poetry that sang
his heart into her soulskin.

vibrant day shone with colour,
reminding her that life was
not supposed to be
a bed of nails,
a coat of camel hair,
or chain-mail woven
from ferocious pain.

golden lights inside her eyelids
danced on and on and on,
there was no �off�,
there was no
artificial godfire
that could copy this:
in a single perfect tear,
she connected with his riverflow,
it traced the curve of her soul.

the beloved�s touch
both sought and soothed
each naked part of her
that begged release,
surrender to

his song,
his heart,
his breath,
his love,

now hers.


in a timeless climax
she released
a single perfect sigh,
and connected to
the breath that took him
deep inside her,

now his.
