we’ll meet again
don’t know where
don’t know when
the less curious the cat
the gentler its death
i know
someday
we’ll sing and dream
from dusk to dawn
the past foregone
we’ll have our secret interlace
and journey beyond the moon
we shall keep it sweet
o
pale
sweet
honey!
i’ve traced your veins, only with my eyes
and i’ve sung delicately, waywardly
would you plant carousel kisses on me?
you carry the ocean in your eyes
and the north wind laces your bones
i like your songful, trembling hands
and chai tea from that street cafe
i collect dreams in glass jars
and tremulous feelings
red and khaki
dimples and regrets
share with me honey breaths
and the touch of soft hands
A locked door and tears,
cold tiles beneath my bare feet,
relief at long last.
Such a pleasant mood
to sing, bake and read a book,
oh, maybe I should!
The stars are beaming
but my happiness, I know,
outshines any star.
