Together, You and I

Now, Let us tuck the sun in, you and I,

Together, You and I

and kiss the forehead of this day good night.

Together, we will sing a lullaby

to our unselfish selves, and douse the lights

of all our duties. Then, we'll softly slip

away ~ the you and I of youth, the you

and I who understand the rivers deep

within each other's souls ~ away into

the hungry and forbidden reaches of

our hearts. Oh, how I long to drink of your

insistent, trembling waters there, my love,

and offer you my own. too slowly, pour

yourself into me. Let us not deny

our thirsty throats each other, you and I.

She hears his love words

whisper on the wind . . .

. . . knowing he will NEVER

return to her!
