On this marbled floor
we danced,
 I the sea
 and you the sky
stretched lazily across heaven
so that I may see you always;
reflected in the foam of our quibbles,
in the whitecaps where
we met in secret,
 when we became alive
 under your lantern of moon,
when our bodies arched
and flowed upwards
 in an impossible tide.
