you will come to me
    some day
    in the tired
    afternoon

    I will have waited
    so many
    moons
    nights
    years
    but you will come

    I will have drawn a picture
    of you
    in that late breeze
    that will slide
    and fall
    into me
    when you come

    I will have detailed
    the shape
    of your love
    every crisp
    edge
    and weighted
    silence
    you will bring to me

    when we
    meet
    in the tired
    afternoon
