I never knew the full story
But somewhere in June
I lost count of the days between us
As the sun changed clocks
Mooncycle changed to Mooncycle
The click-clocks of our hearts became out of time
As the earth switched poles
The bay changed tides
The last time I saw you cry
The hands gone haywire
The compass lost sight
Forgiveness after forgiveness
When gravity lost its pull
The last time I saw you cry
Somewhere in June
Stopped counting
Lost I
Of count but
Between us
The days
of many
