For T

I tried not to write
this poem of longing
in this two step forward
one step back affair,
my fear you'd take flight
asked if we're belonging,
an advance untoward
(how's man say he care's?)

Somewhere in between
reality, reflection,
is a hazy illusion
or perhaps it's us,
your moon's light I glean
silv'ry bits of affection,
then my warm front's occlusion
cooled by clouded muss

My sun won't stay hidden
it's rays rain a golden gift
that just one troubled planet
weakly would seek to screen,
it's warmth you are bidden
brown eyes I beg you uplift,
there was no way to plan it
please look, see what it means

Nothing means more to me than faith,
