I wish I could write down your name
Without being afraid someone will see it.
All those who hurt you, I’ll use as corpses
To form your letters on the beach
I’ll burn them and I’ll warn the sky
Never to rain on you, my god!
Your hands seemed to be veiled in silk,
That wedding ring upon your finger
Perhaps a shadow in your life… I
Some eyes to worship your sweet smile
So sweet I feel it on my skin
So sweet I taste it with my heart
Where was I? Oh, yes, I forgot
Got lost in you, my dear
Our blood be mixed in a Donne way
My flesh in yours and yours around mine
My nails draw maps of love while eaten alive
A Pollock painting with deep meaning
Where was I dear? Guide me along
I wish I could write down your name
What’s in a name? Proctor would say
Your essence is but in your eyes
Your essence is but in your voice
No, in your laughter, no, the lips
Where was I? Oh, yes, I forgot
I wish I could scream out your name
