Nolens Volens
My love,
In a different world,
a world with no borders;
no politics or pious pretense
of what is right and wrong;
no shackles of duty or regret;
no heaven or hell, but only
the divine insistence of now;
In a world that knows not
of possession, but only
the right and natural order;
the ancient, indisputable laws
of gravity and attraction;
the push and pull of the tides
as commanded by the
goddess moon herself.
In this world, if no other,
inevitably,
I am yours.
I have always been yours.
The stars
have known Us
all along.
