Loves lost and found

No words
Can describe the light and dark of being
That would rise to the surface of my skin

A tide of love coming up
From my heart
Drowning with memories

The first touch

The first kiss

The shameless, sensitive 
playfulness

Those subtle strong shoulders
Stretched in ecstacy

Golden curls
Nestled gently, fleetingly, guardedly

The light, those eyes, that skin
through trust
our time-travelling, alchemical desire
faith made flesh

Gladly drowned
Gladly borne in love
Gladly cherished
Gladly mourned, my loves

Those lips
Those kisses
Owned that self and are lost
dissolved

like an estuary
changed by the tides and the seasons

The dawn could not have come without the fall of sunset,
And the long night,
It is a love song to love beyond lovers.
