THE BALANCE
Gently, slowly
I moved close to her
leaning over
compelled by forces
never quite understood
but heartfelt
for her love
beckoned a reply
to which I responded
placing one kiss
to each eye
as they closed
sealing her fate
to be forever
lost up in love
for me
as I was for her.
"Remember this moment
should doubt
cloak itself
in an attempt
to steal away
with our love
this intoxicating nectar
from the gods."

The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.
Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
