In the Night
by Frank Watson
In the rain
I mix the light
With your voice;
I hear a longing
And leave a gift

That you open
With trembling hands.
You let out a cry—
But that’s why I called you tonight;
It is what you sought.

Close your eyes
And lay your hands on mine;
Let your chest heave
With the breathing
Of divinity.

Here, beneath the moon,
In the white light
Of stars,
I light a candle for you
And pray in ritual love.
