dichotomy tease

Your loveliness,
or your love - I don't
know which is more precious
and immediate to me.
Your love, perhaps, is more lasting,
even eternal; your loveliness
more to be seized.
But since lovely you
loves me, I find

no dilemma,
no forced choice between,
no divided mind, just peace
and ease -

and disbelief.

Wondering how
you have said
you're mine.

- yet trust, feeling
paradoxically lost
in the shadow of
pure relief,

as I see you shine.
