How Do I Love You

Wipe away your reverie 
And come back 
To the place that binds you
Forget the sun 
And ignore
Ignoble daylight
Loosen 
Ties to 
things 
Auspicious

Moor your heart 
Within my tender
Darkness
I will wrap my 
Arms
Around your neck 
And whisper
In lovers speak
Hush 

Grow down
To where we
Are entwined
As 
One
Thought 

Our psalm
Here 
We will rest
forgeting your ignoble sun
Asleep together entwined
I love me 
And 
That you love you

Never to be Broken apart 
From 
Now until then
