Wanting

I love you without surrender or Abandonment, without stars or the Months fragrance, without need or Desire. I love you as nothing is my own. I love you as the night steals life. I love you as you move through me And the Earth is born. I do not love you as a shatter, an arrived Kiss, a ardent dream, but as a feed root Constructing my timber dropped by memory Into a thick skin of time. I love you as time loves passage. I love you as a curved ending needs The slender of dawn. I love all your places, quiet and feathers, Blood as soil, infinity starts in you, dust And June, I love you for everything that Begins and lives in me. In the end, I love you for the darkness you bring And the eternal light. In the end, I love you now As always.
