Molecule

 I used to watch, to bathe in cloth 

Where caves are wet and hills are soft 

Where flowers bloom below soil and stars 

The knot was strong, the rope was taut 


What turned to foil in glowering gloom 

Eyes like ice through a shattering moon

To hear your words, echoing, glancing,

To contemplate your glowing silhouette

And feel the hours adhere to stone 

A moment in time where all is shown  


I will never desire to recall or imagine,

One cycle of life lost and alone 

I know it's more than bitterness and spite 

Keeping you alive, keeping you bright  

For love is light and light is life 

Resisting me ardently, desperately tonight

And like cells, wherever I form, I must multiply
