They were the dawn

Where two people see one another
Touch each otherÕs flesh
Like it was only theirs to hold

Her hair, his sweat
Her cheeks underneath the breathe of white sheets

He took her legs and wrapped them
Wrapped them around the walls
Where each region of the sea
Met the four corners of their room

She let him touch her toes
As they slowly curled towards his face

Towards the space
Between the day and night
Where she was on his arm
Like the time she cried
Because her mother was gone

The time she cried
When they first made love
She simply took her arm
The sunrise and the sunset
The woman of a shadows descent
Riding away in his arms.
