you and I
are
fire and sound
desire unto itself
though unbound
timidity gently turned
oh so tenderly around
weary once
yet worried no more
gregarious within our own
gaff and gore
whether by
glib grievance
or glorious afterglow
gain stay is a commodity
we gamble with in each
our separate shadows
while your self surrendering to me
truly booked a stealth passage
upon my heart's slow, steady tug
each mercy from within
strives for some better footing
between us
more aptly put
the shadowless clouds
forever block the brilliance
of our blending sun..................
