Your body has
a completeness, a softness
meant for me { … }…

Don't leave me, not even for a day, because --
because -- I don't know how to say it: a day is long
and I,  I’ll be waiting for you, like at the station
when the trains are parked somewhere else { … }…

I love you, not as if you were a crystal rose or topaz,
or carnations darting from the fire:
I love you as some veiled things are loved,
secretly, in the shadows of the soul. { … }…

I do not love you yet because I do love you I waver between loving and not loving you, Between waiting and not waiting for you. My heart swings between hot and cold. { … }…
