what word is more than love

what word is more than love or has love's mouth
to touch your skin
or wander on the opening of the kiss and
moan, sigh, want its name
which is unchanging

the swan alone, who never comes again
 
or the little summer snowflakes
quivered on the stem
or shot 
are only fallen from the pen

bloodless
lies

while the word and all it is to fall in love will ever rise.
