You are taller than me – I stand
on a Tuft of grass, so I can
see into your eyes –
How pale You are in the moonlight
and how dark Your eyes are
– They are so large
they cover half
the Sky –
I can barely see your
features – but I glimpse your
white teeth when you smile –
I am a little cold – and how dark
the Forest seems –
Do You not see an Animal in there
– is it a boulder – or a head
– a snake’s head –
I sense You are smiling –
When we stand like this – and
my eyes gaze into your large
eyes – in the pale moonlight –
– don’t You know – delicate hands
weave invisible threads – that
entangle my heart –
leading from my eyes – through
Your large dark eyes – into
Your heart –
– How large Your eyes are
now when You are so near me
– They are like two immense dusky
Skies
