Wildness
Apart from your wildness
inviting solid loving
your ability to make me scold
even the rhythm of my step
your versional realities of me
astonishing and well scripted
apart from all this please
never ever set me up
as one of those somebodies
who didn't care or know you
one of those that did their thing
and left as poor as they came
I knew perhaps more of you
than I could have dreamt
and about you this I say
you are what I love about life
you are infinitely brave
your kiss lays bare the certainty
the sheer beauty of existence
my plea is weak as pleas are
but if I leave you yearning
then think I will
always be with you
a catch in your breath
that lasts a lifetime
hold me in your hand
I will hold yours back
time doesn't have to know
that it's been more
than this morning
or fifty years ago
