Say My Name

A Poem

you draw me close
while another night fades,
sunlight replacing starlight
and the moon crossing the river
of the sky’s tranquil expanse

but we do not fool ourselves —
there are wars of emotion out there
beyond this bedroom we share,
a sanctuary we made on our own —
and we seek comfort in each other
