december

rest
and I will find my way
into your favored dreams -
where feathers sail
and angels wait your will
the wind that is your voice
and I - a song you knew -
rest and I will find you
in places
I have loved

dream
and I (renewed)
shall rise
without the vow you kept
would never speak
of then -
tho sweeter now -
forever buds
familiar blooms -
ashes of the throne
where I am you
and you are come
again

stay
and in the years
denied -
remember our december -
paths to lead
wandering in the snow -
death within the dark
concedes as life begins -
kiss the lips
that miss you
the taste that is
your name
