Some Kiss

There is some kiss we want with our whole lives,
the touch of spirit on the body.

Seawater begs the pearl to break its shell,
and the lily, how passionately
it needs some wild darling.

At night, I open the window
and ask the moon to come and press its face
against mine, Breathe into me.

Close the language-door, and open the love-window.
The moon won’t use the door, only the window.
