TO HAVE AND TO HOLD
Before the morning
Breaks the dark
I reach to touch you
As you lay.
So near in space,
So far apart.
In dreams, perhaps,
You wish to stay.
Yet, at my touch
You fold to me
In ways that we
So long have done.
Those perfect hugs
Of symmetry
That makes us more
And less than one.
Together, silent ,
Still, we lie
And let our love
Light up the sky.
