Love Poem: Lost

Lost

It was the glorious terror of an instant when
the sun was lost in the moon - and 
the explosion shook the hair out of
the world into the abyss of our joined womb  
nourished by the blinding light,

… enraptured and captive, we ran and hid
then dared to play, 
first, you were the sun and I was the moon, next
I was the sun, you, the gem 
haunting the silken web of night...

… and the explosion still
shakes our abyss
nourished by our enraptured eyes filled
with the terrifying 
glory - of a joined moon and sun...
