Stolen

Can you close your eyes
For a stolen moment;
And lie down with me
In this gravel of impudent joy?

Can you leave them alone
For a stolen moment?
Those thoughts that run through your mind,
People you love, your job, this rain;
Hesitations, wrongness, concerns and care
That guilt that tomorrow will be mine?

Let me touch your hands
And for a stolen moment,
Kiss them, hug them, hold them close.
In the boundlessness of this embrace
I live my life over and again
Today, tomorrow and for every dawn that comes.
