The other night
I saw the half-face
Of the Moon
And thought of you…


Your lovely profile
Haunts
My dreams,


A cameo of
Everything
I want and need;


but in my dream
It was the denouement
Following a tragedy—


I glimpsed your lovely face
As you were swallowed
By the crowded street


Your glance
Averted,


Forever turned away from me.
