In a timeless moment without sense or breath,
You bend my reality and I leap into your depth.
Connection beyond explanation.
You are friend, you are muse,
You are myth rendered true.
You are up in the clouds and rooted in the ground,
A primary particle and complex compound.
Like the moon reflected on the ocean’s horizon,
Contingently, near you, nights enliven.
When I look at you I get high,
I find myself in between your figure, formless in the endlessness of your sky.
We are truth, we are fable,
We are veritas unlabeled.
We are light and dark,
Beyond the binary we spark.
We ignite without burning out the flame,
In never falling to ash, chance remains.
Within an ephemeral glimpse into each other’s eyes,
We quixotically become a phoenix in perpetual rise.
