In Your Heart

Forgive me for drifting away,
dark-haired lady of legend,
for leaving the clear running water
of your voice and its music
that sang of love and kisses
despite the demands of any given day.
I left for the mountains,
trudging through snow
in search of a lamasery
that would unpack all secrets,
bind up wounds that had been carved
before our eyes ever engaged
and danced what only we could dance
and see through long hours
of lounging in serendipity.
The only secret I needed was
in your heart,
in your heart.

~William Hammett
