Damp and Dark

Night bears witness    
as moss traps and releases      
moisture from the sky above    
and the ground below    
     
You break my heart from these same places
open me until space is all that exists      
     
I am ready now      
for you to become the moss      
in the crevice of my wide open    
expansiveness    
     
There is enough damp and dark here      
for you to feast into eternity    
come drown in it    
then go out remembering    
as swiftly and lovingly as you forget.
