I'm the comet that appeared for the first time
that will never return
through the judgment of your life,
revealing myself,
only to have you receive what I bring
as the love you long to take and return
without reservation
before the ice dust from my departure
fades for all time.

Through the slender-necked sitar's silvery notes
pass the fragrance of our moonstruck limbs
surrendering to breezes
that play off a river that honors
the generations of lovers we now embody.

You were the fallen angel that waited so long,
knowing I'd be found,
to resuscitate and raise you up;
Not from whence you toppled,
but to couple in a holy damna
