Can we take it back?

Can we take it back to the night when it was just you and me?

Can we take it back to the time when your lips found mine?

Yes?

Back to the time when your lips glorified the god in mine.

Can we take it back to the time when I was the only?

Can we take it back to the time when I was your every?

Yes?

Back to the time you offered yourself as sacrifice at the altar between my legs.

Can we take it back to                 back to the time                back to the time when

Wait.

Let’s take it back to the time you called me daughter of the moon

Back to the time when you saw the sun I carry in me

No?

Can we take it forward?

Yes?

Let’s take it forward to the time when you walk past me

A courteous “hello” before you disappear amongst other strangers.
