Homecoming

An abyss Aegean blue
A dance fraught
A heartache shrouded
Where one sees the sea,
A tempest homeland
As such untenable salt

A fierce-fought choros
None eyes but one’s soul
None strings but ancestors
Where temptation to succumb,
A war on bare floor with bare feet
As blue sky beats back

Homecoming

Homecoming flowers forthcoming
Feel no absence of my hand
Neither plead with some clock that I’d take time
Nor beg my eyes to see them stay, faithfully

We dance simple, together

I take my vow to let them
Take my breath away
They take their vow to make me
Run happily home
