Forever
Shirin Mirdamadi 1989 (California)
September 23As a feather to skin
Prompts a rebirth of feeling;
Your eyes meeting mine
Recall my heart’s
first beating.
As clear water reveals,
sultry wine appeals;
Laced fingers, joined hearts,
and truth
fell armor’s steel.
Unzipped from the spine,
As faintly stars shine;
Unknown depths in view
Emerging one,
but from two.
As the phoenix moon rises
with lessons, the setting sun;
Each inhale, life renewed.
Devotion’s breath,
never done.
As I cherish you now
I’ll cherish you always;
Each lifetime, to be:
Forever you, forever me.
