Married to Amazement

When it's over, I want to say all my life
I was a bride married to amazement.

from When Death Comes by Mary Oliver  
 
Mary’s words came to mind  
during our embrace when  
the sacred of you entered me.  
 
Was new life born in that moment?  
What will become of us?  
Will this night be remembered  
by others when death swallows  
all that is left of us?
 
These were my thoughts while making love.  
I am always young in your embrace,  
a bride married to amazement.
