'Tis much to me
That it was you
First to see me here,
Naked on the shores,
Holding out
My heart's arms
To you, to welcome you
To the love
Of my warm beaches.
And you,
The only diamond
Of the universe
On which my infinity revolves,
I give to you, then,
The sugar of which
You speak so quickly of.
I rain granules of hope
In heaps
At your soul's
Now-cleansed feet.
I powder you
With a confection
Of caring
And caresses
Of tender midnights.
I pour my heart's
Thick syrup slowly over you,
Until you are sweet
And covered and sticky
With love from my soul.
I give you sugar.
