I can hold you forever--
in arms, in eyes
in a solemn ministry of love
my mouth is a vow
(all words are wow)
I know love like loneliness
like a rescue animal
diving through fog
in your marrows of strength
the tenderness of words
the tenderness of wounds
for when you ask me questions
certainty lies--folded between
my hands like grace
