How I love you

How I love you that the night shivers, dropping the stars

on the steps of your feet — feet of my life’s direction
For our love was born before the first star was made

How I love you — you tread on my dreams
that you levitate in moonlight
like a white lily risen from the flesh of the ocean
into my sunrise

and like the subtle current that moves all the planets
you move my heart
that is always within your heart
in the boundless orbit
of your beautiful mystery

How I love you? My One, my True?
You are the first and last dream of my soul
You eclipse everything.
