“Lost Love

I found you,
hidden by crooked fingers
of gnarly wood
and leafy green,
a pale ghost,
drifting like morning mist,
through haunted trees
and forest birdsong.

You come to me
in waning moonlight,
your story told
on icy skin,
the pages pale,
with purple kisses,
walking barefoot
and breathless,
toward my heart.

You found me,
buried deep
beneath this earthly blanket,
of thorny twigs
and weeping mud,
two lovers torn
now bound together,
in joyful death
we make our bed.”
