Again again again
I look to you again-
this time laughing, this time
at the tip of the earth, where sand kisses sea-
with you and your rosy eyelids,
honey cheeks and hands intertwined
with mine
trying to balance

this time,
harmonizing thoughts and harmonizing gestures
we look at each other just as clearly
as the sun looks through the sea,

breathing lightly
salted hair and coral reefs,
tide pools, billowing sheets
I see your glow, I feel
your softness.

We're finally here.
