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.
I was a bride married to amazement.
