Voyager

Voyager On the mornings I wake Call your name Forget I am alone First there is the hidden face Next, heave I want to kiss you in a place where we don't sleep Find the warmth of your lips in the fading room The miles, our love language Distant and humming A burnished gold kind of sweet In the hours we need to get anywhere Our bodies split the air Our bodies aloft spinning white walls and chrome Our cliffs and rooms love Our sacred keys Wheel me away I'm sure the night is less afraid that I am falling I am, surely I didn't even know I was looking for you Now I've found you and you're gone To be loved and understood Could I be hinged to you? Not like lock and key Like fingers whisper, make two hands one The wing of a tryptic Left or right adorned in oil The colors sing the panels treasure The fractions, facets, new math without the other Three ages of an era passed A tale that takes both of us When offered, our voices make more Another dream in the dance Our holy tongues spun free in the roots of us History, finding its hinge Its hands slipped in ours Altarpiece of patient hearts Everything is a love story Every life, will, and matter
