Worth the Wait

How inadequate it would be
for me to say
you have been well worth the wait.
Human beings feel this
loneliness bone-deep, a great hunger
a yearning to feel
the greatest experience, the right
mating of body and heart.

My Life Will Be

My life will be beautiful,
unassuming, and
interesting.
I will dream in the woods
and be too much
in love.
