Raptor Lament
Separate
But connected We meet rarely Through choice, through need Through loneliness You moved in me Moved time and space To what should have been Breathing, loving, giving, taking Breathless endless long explosion Stars and dark Stars and dark You held my hand Listened to the raptors cry Fed me blackberries from your vines And we drank your wine Along the dirt road that leads to paradise We live alone Walk in solitude No sorrow, no regret Like raptors we meet Fly high, couple aloft, and part Live lonely and return Listening to the raptors cry Fed me blackberries from your vines And we drank your wine Along the dirt road that leads to paradise
