When the winds brought in
The malice of love
I breathed it for once
Till I could do no more
When two eyes looked at me
And nodded with no fright
It blew the candle away
Leaving two souls and a few gasps
When a hug came wandering
And gathered around my neck
I thought it was need not want
That beckons at sunset
Beneath the sheets or above it
Two pairs of limbs tried to
Unravel the mystery of each other
One too loud, the other so quiet
When the voice said it is true
I believed it would last
More than a summer than
It should in haste otherwise
The eyes that looked into
Now looked yonder in haste
Looking for a door to hurry
As the evening seem to perish
Let me smile alone
As there is some left in the air
The smooth smell that wafts
Along the wool left in haste
Someday, somewhere the
Ebbing heart will forget to
Forget the seething pain
That leaves behind in vain
Will the wind return or the sun
Break the shadows on the run
Some winter would shake
And stir the soup laid in the cold
Here it remains where it
All end the very tall cliff where
Some end their loneliness
And Some begin theirs
The smile will return to haunt
Or to haul me back into the
Fire that erupts in disdain
For the darkness to move for space
Light will leave and the gasps
Will return, but this time both
Will echo the same as one
Will remember to forget the pain
Together they will rain the meadows
Shine the trees and sound the
Morning haze will rush the country
And rule the winds for long
They will look into their own
In mirrors they hold for each other
And hear the drums that rev up
The darling beats that break the mute
Forever will they dance, forever will
They love and forever will the birds
Sing in no rhyme but pure joy
In verses the land never heard
