One Sigh
Join me
On the ledge of life
To jump.
Or wait,
In patient sunset
To fly.
What wings
Could take us as high.
To touch
What Icarus
Did regret.
One sigh
Of love.
Pays any debt.
Come with me
Unto the ocean.
To die with grace
In diving motion.
Together
To cast our fate.
In waters of diamond rays.
Where mariners
Staged their tragic plays
Of goodbye.
Waving to a raging sky.
One sigh
Of love
For days,
Rings around
Sweet moonlit bays.
The canyons
Where our souls did merge
To an audience of stars.
Two lovers
Standing on the verge.
As Venus danced with Mars.
Echoes of music filled the sky.
The moon above
Dripped tears
To cry.
One sigh
Of love
Wafted by.
On the perfume
Of a distant kiss.
Holding hands.
We fade in bliss.
