SANCTUARY

Your breaths like water 
I float upon them
A leaf 
Torn by the autumn breeze 

Moving

From moment to moment,

Lengthening time,

Stretching eternity.

In love

With dusky shadows

Scented teardrops

And woodsmoke smiles

Bridges

From night to dawning light,

I’m not lost, I’m home

Within your darkling eyes.
