In The Silence Of Our Bedroom…
(Rio de Janeiro 13/5/1979)
In the silence of our bedroom you sleep,
The gentle darkness filling all space,
Hiding the rise and fall of your breast,
Hiding your beautiful face.
In the quietness of this bedroom I lie,
The yellow lamplight providing the sight
For my pen to form words of relief for my mind,
As I wish I were with you this night!
