Where felt as Eros,
gray skies with white intentions
formed a black wanting.
A gravity that forced a surging passion for a more real bond
matured as a fornication
in this urgent and pressing time,
in believed rights and incisions.
But Eros, contrary to identity,
knew well what was last and forthcoming,
in demeanor and in writing
and believed in man completely,
so in practice gave them new intensity of soul
and love truly won,
to be justified,
and now stands as a monument
of love never gained,
only given.
