ACTS OF LOVE
(Fifty songs to my other self.)
Poems 16 and 17
Text-only version

16.

Can you hear me in this windy night?
Do you hear me above the tearing of the trees?

You are not listening this night,
yet I shall speak all the same.

By no chance will you hear,
the wind carries my voice above and beyond.


17.

Where have we smiled like this before?

Clasped each others hands?

Was it you that cried, choking, when first the blackbirds sang?

My worst moments are destroyed in the gleam of your eye.
