Forbidden

With forbidden love we crafted

High, deep skies of darkest honey;

Peopled them with banks of

Angel-bright, crystal stars

And  firesnake fables.

We made for ourselves

A warm, full moon

And sang the silence song.

But though these fictions,

Intense and all consuming

We both knew two things:

That they were wrong …

And bound to fail.
