I promise you
not to build mountains of gold
on weak ground, I promise you
no lifelong love
out of blind lust

I promise you
no great deeds
but sincere ones
to do what I can
to be who I am

that is: your
wisdom when you're angry
defence wall around your fear
hand under your head
nest for your sorrow

I am your
understanding answer
mountain with a view
double joy
and other side

I am your
well-doing bath
together at the table
bed to sleep in
love to your toes

My love smiles at me,

he is good to me, he doesn't --


need to be better.

There are multitudes

of faces, everyone has --


many more than one.

A man falls over,

luckily I can't see more --


There are bystanders.

If I only have love
when I meet you
I have everything

to exist
to say
and be safe

If I am love
I can bear death
and the pain, my tears

flow around
the world and together
we can be happy

The little plant bends

with the sun and the wind, blooms --


as much as it can.

Kissing I slide down

over his tongue into his --


soul, and feel his fear.
