the returning

we go back to what we know
retreating
to the things of old
i return
ruminating
yearning
sea to shore
dust to dust
i speak your name in the dark
as a wish, a prayer
to raise the dead once more
like a woman possessed
i speak your name
an incantation saying,
sea to shore
dust to dust
me to you
