A Tavern

-------A Tavern-------

When the entire world is your best friend
solitude becomes a tavern
where we meet
and prayer
the wine we drink together.

I am not alone here.

Quiet, yes, 
and waiting for your golden presence 
to fill the doorway.

I will smile
and we will dance into a spiral,
atop chairs and tables built by patience, 
forgetting the time,
until the whole room fills with light.

And we collapse.

Side by side.
At home.
Complete.
