Love

If you love someone
put all of yourself
in her.
Press your palm
over her palm
the way the two shells
of a clam
connect.
Keep kindly
all her smiles, her looks
that you may return them whole
with your kisses.
You could
allow yourself to be thrown
into the jungle
of her feelings and her mind
because at their edges
you know there are whirlpools
springing from her memories
which will gather mysteriously
into the ocean
of your heart.
That’s how you’ll sense
the huge sadness seeping
from the shadow
of that lone tree,
why bad dreams
waken you as dawn
wraps still the world,
an omen warning you
that she’s no longer by your side.
But when you discover her
peacefully sleeping
at your back
you’ll embrace her with
the joy of the hermit crab
who has found for itself
a new shelter.
