may days

though your dress conforms, your manners comport,

though the offences you give, may be measured at naught,

though in society’s net, you are inevitably caught,

may your garlic wild heart, question all that it’s taught

 

though your surface be steady, placid and still,

may your lungs stretch to bursting, may you feel your own fill,

and when dubious duties beset and make fraught,

may your star-burst heart drive waves of sharp thought

 

may your days be full of secret delight,

may your apparent passive, really be fight,

may you find yourself beside your own truest light,

may all your days be as holy as night

 

may everything you are and ever can be,

be there for you,

and be right next to me

 

be night garden, my secret, my truth,

for though we live in this house, our souls,

my sweet darling, tear straight through its roof

 

 

Prev be the light
Next loving service
I dream of love
