Modern Love Xx (I Love You Here)



Modern Love XX

I love you, here
where the river shivers from the winds caresses
where the moon stretches all the way to the ocean
where the moon and river are, both, lost

where the anxious mist sighs into ballet dances
where solo silver seagulls shed skin color,
Occasionally,
Becoming at times, a red sail.
where stars arise! Arise!
dark cross of a ship, sailing
alone
dawn, at times dews in my soul
a reminder, remembrance of the distant ocean
This is a doorway
I love you, here.

I love you, here, where vain sunrise cloaks you
I still love you, among world of ice
at times my kisses debark on heavy boats
upon an ocean for ports where they
shall not moor

forgotten, already, like ancient anchorings
at sad wharfs docked by late afternoon
hunger exhausts useless life
loving what shan't be
you are so, so, distant!

weariness struggles to embrace dusk sadness
night puts on a coat, and begins to sing
the moon spins a waterwheel of dreams
the furthest stars seek with your eyes
How I love you!

The wind in the pines
wishes to sing your name,
accompanied by leaves
ringing the hour of sleep
