The light shone through him,
Like the moon-
A silver coin

Slipped into a pocket of blackness,
Wrapped in a velvet cloud,
Of rain-

Where drops filled,
In the eyes of mine, his
A lonely puddle in the heart

Winked flecks of white, gold
Poured down the elements of his lust
We were lovers of the night

When set the moon-
In his pale sky
He closed his eyes;
As did I
