Patterns on my skin
where you held so tight
Circles in my heart
you are always around
In-prints in the sand
where we whispered
sighs in the surf
tears shadowing our midst
kissing twilight
in the mist
Like patterns on my skin
tattoos on my mind
sapphires in our sweat
You are always here
when I dream
when I stare
when I remember
Kisses floating in the breeze
I know they are yours
by the scent
by the taste
by the touch
Patterns in our life
created and sustained
That we are
NOW that we are one.
August 1978 Baltimore Maryland
