that was dark winter when love was othering me watching and denying me when dreams squeezed from my fingers played in the place he never touched where he did not long to go that was dark winter when I knew need light has found me traced the gathering in my throat winter song pulse laid me bare in this winter of quiet a small yellow flower stands in white relief against the naked window words never heard in this room embrace my ear low voice snug growl of laughter secrets told undercover new to this time of year in this winter of quiet plenty has become my portion to give and to receive |
