Waxing and Waning

Waning and Waxing

There is lunacy in love

Like the tide blood

Moves toward and then away

From the blood of each other

You increase in my mind

Like the Crescent Moon

A sliver of my life and then

More as your light fills my vision

As the ever increasing sphere

Of the moon increases filling

The sky blocking out the light

Of all those stars we have adored

Until my life is full of you

And the fullness is the sphere

Of our existence sacred 

Blinding

Then like the moon

Our love recedes back into

The night the unconscious for

We know the moon is no less

However much its light yields back

The stars and wandering planets of our

Lives

The moon recedes until there is

A Crescent in the dawn

Rising over the sea just before the Sun

As the moon vanishes

We are sure the cycle will repeat

That we shall share the fullness

Love gives us

Over and
Over
