spells and incantations II

Today
I want to listen to
echoes
in your uncertain voice.

Tell me
with words
that never existed.

Change your skin
your port
or invent
a departure.

But return me
to where I was and slowly
like January rain
those hot mornings
where the flower
has not died.

That ancient sobbing
that at the wind's incantations
turns into light
with no limit
where my dreams

are dreaming.
