ecstasy

speak with me in silence
hold me at a distance
whisper words unheard
and i will listen.

touch me with your greatness
love me with your life
and i will dance
and sing songs again

too long this barren
womb unleaping
too tired this body
broken unfeeling

and i cannot help
but weep
in sweet relief

as i hear the echoed
silence
and feel
the caress of love
upon the wind

hold me from a distance
and i will dance again.
