Sonnet for Skylight

Skylight/Math

Text

I see the universe within your veins
Streams of light, like the bands of chains
I watch the galaxies that turn in you
In every move, in everything you do

Your smile moves beneath my fingertips
I find the master's painting on your lips
What others find in the sparks within your eyes
Your body whispers to me without lies

You, my love, may smite me with your touch
And wreck me with the slightest change of voice
For your favor I would give up much
Loving you has never been a choice

This is as I wish: these words are true
Everything of me is lost in you
