We said our love things
Under light of the moon,
New faces sparked, shimmered, tied
In the blinks of heavens, O true eyes,
Among a grand Milky Way of stars
An so hot were the froths of cold air,
Steaming in swirls of daze
Round our faces into blaze.
We said our love things
With swim of hands locked,
Rowing out to sea like little wan skiffs,
Dreamy and drunk in the ocean shifts
And muffled hearts broke skin drums,
Fell the waves rushing into dark some,
O how lovely and dire the airs
How ocean sighed with us fair,
Yet, loss grew unmeasured,
By love things so treasured,
Our little boat was cast out, away too far,
We lost dear knowledge, the guiding stars,
Confounding joys split the night so clear,
Meek, spindrift promises, offered up wares,
Vouched keen love things
Under fates, flighty moon.
