Veil us in icy
mist And hide us from the wind! Love eludes the paradigm, Eden yet within. None will see our nakedness, That outward sign of trust, Intimate in joy and pain, Need, tenderness, and lust; Easily familiar, 'Twixt ecstasy and peace, Safely in our solitude, Delighted to repeat A passion that returns, returns, Yet renders us complete.
