Lovesick

Still soft asleep

I would cover her body in words

Ravish the silk at her neck

Yet such speech might rouse her


The moon peeks in and taps her wrist

I cannot kill dreams

I’ve not dreamed myself


My nurse stirs

Perhaps my muttered curses

Will buy not love but less pain

Gain a short joined truce

Betray me to that most passionate seduction

The delirious fantasy of hope
