Afraid

 

Afraid, although it's real,

that love has leaked away

on the waters of words I say,

yet it's the love I feel,

that's like something you said,

a body of land, turned,

smooth-coasted, with that unspurned

ocean behind your head

where retreats out of me

what I would not claim,

that for a moment has my name,

then's the sea

and good, that has your

entreaty, lack of concern,

an embrace I learn

that I knew at once, before

knowing enough to say

at all still blackly running

out beyond my cunning

away, to say it stay.
