The Night It Felt Right

The waves are lap slap lap tapping
Against the shape of my memory.
This is the place of perfection,
He tells me with his voice of smoke and crimson.
The moon descends to tap me on the shoulder,
To whisper in my ear
That this is no longer a time to pretend.
The color of his eyes is like the first time,
As he tells me of another time, another place,
Another girl.
The breath of the fog
Fills me with remembrance,
Solace.
He saturates me with a dense hope.
The swans begin to sing their song,
While the moon fades away,
And I slip fitfully into a doomed exhileration.
