To My Lover

To dissolve into a fleeting sun
And pass beyond all shadow
And to remain alert on the edge of eternity
A backless eye greeting the past, present, and future
Is to live like this, unburdening my soul to you,
Who feigns sleep now, your head in the crook of my arm.
May I never wake from this purifying slumber
That keeps me bound to your peace.
