....And you became like water That slipped between my fingers,        there is no then, Only a haunted now, I move in the stillness of compacted time      In the great masses of peoples With the landscape unmoving       Under dome of sky Where regret crushes a tiny star,       A memorial of light within light, I am lost in your memory;            Luminous woman,           Golden haired woman           Stretches herself over skies We crossed the nocturnal In a final dialogue of our bodies,      We spoke fire like poetry Enlaced in the verbiage of lovers,      But words take final breaths,     They distance themselves into echoes,          we named new words      And constellated sonnets        Into the night sky;       The living wound       Cuts through my life,        Be it your knife, my sacrifice And in the kingdom of us Where we crowned ourselves In the momentary truth,        All became our perception; We created new worlds for our selves,     We put the sun upon the sea And set it to sail into our night,        Everyday was a resurrection as we governed our lives      In an ecstatic harmony;        To see your lovely forms,             The sun throbs        In the shadow of your living hour      In forever I cast myself         Unto gravitous time,       Memories embody your form      And the moment fulfills itself,          Though the life is gone from me,          The poem embodies forever,              Immense as the look of your love.
