Holy of Holies

You are a sacred creature, love
Your breath in the silence, rhythm to my blood
You cradle my head in the failing light
My queen of the water, puller of the tide

You fold my body in your temple
You're the holy of holies
I drown beneath the fountain
Every time you hold me
In stillness, I am simple
Since you came to know me, unraveling

What strange devotion that finds us here
Now tenderly braided, there's only you my dear
The foot of the staircase, the winding creaks
The grip on my sternum I never want relieved
