i want to be
in love with you

the same way
i am in
love with the moon

with the light
shining
out of its soul.

To fall in love with someone's thoughts - the most intimate, splendid romance.

your smile.
is the ultimate
golden dream.
all the poems
in the world
are waking up from.

it was the kind of moon
that I would want to
send back to my ancestors
and gift to my descendants

so they know that I too,
have been bruised...by beauty.

your gaze
across
my cheeks

turned them
into
strawberry fields.

be the kiss in my hair
that no one sees

move, when i move
sigh, when i sigh...

be that line from a poem
that i hold in my eyes.
