naru of the morning wind

you started it with a kiss -
the dream-dust falls from my body
and i am naked to your bliss.
your taste melts in my mouth
and fades with the darkness.
i rise to your morning's youth
but sealed in my emptiness,
and lost from you;

my thoughts take form into you,
no waves from oceans can unsettle
this delta of my dreams of you.
you have been for so long
the face of mists of night,
the soul of seasons and their song,
the dream to take flight,
from my touch;

and you must end this with a kiss,
i beg for a piece of your smile
to rest a while upon my lips.
i must fade soon with the evening
to be gone for you for good.
i thought i could hear you sing
and if you ask me to i would,
fade with you.
