your face strange to me
in the gap between night and day
feeding the silence I’ve learnt by heart
of an inevitable end, and echo

Shame

the things I do
in borrowed rooms
but never speak of

I woke first

May 2015
I woke first
morning birdsong
I accept grace in the moment
watch you sleep
let my love for you silently reach
into an endless horizon of sunlight
