The Parentheses

                                                                  

 

We intimately appreciate the parentheses

Our going to bed and awakening together, naked,

Place around the fleshly hymns of our inner peace,

 

That in-between space deeper than harmonizing silence,

That serene caesura of soft, even breathing,

In which you and I revitalize our lives,

 

So that, on entering each new dawn,

We see the possibilities of everlasting happiness

Glistening like stars outdazzling the renascent sun

 

And sense myriad tomorrows' parentheses

Encapsulating, like ageless inhalations and exhalations,

The destiny of our love's sleep and reawakening.
