Poem, about a woman whose name means "Of the sea" (free verse)

Night roses

never the sea

tired body of a goddess

on my mortal split bed



Never the sea

The hours are not enough

the hours that sought

to compose a night of embraces

and your body on mine



never the sea

electric stars

roses of other worlds

where we might meet again

others' lips tasted like the storm

HA!

I drunk wine from the north on your lips

and winter milk from your breasts

Death fears me!

Never the sea...



Then, what does your name mean?
