Gazing Out, Gazing In 
 
(to my lover gazing out the window) 
 
  
 
Because I am here 
 
anchoring you 
 
to the passionate darkness, 
 
you gaze out the window 
 
at the light. 
 
  
 
My love is the thing 
 
that frees you 
 
to follow your eyes, 
 
  
 
as your love, 
 
a sword made of moonlight 
 
and blood, 
 
and smelling of sex 
 
and salt marshes, 
 
frees me to gaze 
 
with a calm inward 
 
eye. 
 
  
 
In all your frenzied searching 
 
you never stood 
 
calmly at the window. 
 
  
 
But now the sea, 
 
the city and the sky 
 
are all seen 
 
as if from a perch 
 
at the edge of the cosmos, 
 
where I sit behind you 
 
gazing 
 
at the fire. |
