Sea and Moon

They loved urgent love
The mouths salty from the sea breeze
The backs torn by the storm
In that city
Far from the sea
They loved the serene love
Of the nightly beaches
They lifted their skirts
And bathed in happiness under the moonlight
In that city
That has no moon
They loved the forbidden love
Because today it's known
Everyone tells
That one was dizzy
Pregnant with the moon
And the other walked naked
Eager for the sea

And they were getting marked
Listening to laughter, feeling shivers
Looking at the river so full of moon
And that continues
Running to the sea
And they went downstream
Rolling in the bed
Swallowing water
Floating with the algae
Dragging leaves
Carrying flowers
And dissolving
And they turned into fish
Turning into shells
Turning into pebbles
Turning into sand
Silver sand
With full moon
And by the seashore
