sonnet one hundred twenty five

when do you know once has
become more than a dream,
when one has become
more than a painful hope,

more than a reckless shadow,
more than the dark lid
that shuts the image of
all other faces and requires

that you see only her?
when do you know one has
become more than a scent

or a sound - when the breathing
particles of your humanity finds
its worth in her hands.
