Through embers and old ashes
I see your smile,
so wide and clear that dancing lights
have time to stop there.
Your soul shines through
so I learn more, more, more, more about you.
The night unwinds with you beside me.
Closer, closer
we get still
distance still etched
between wanting and need.
A need to know
to feel
to see
to believe that these gifts are still possible.
I stay in this moment of time.
I stand here
in this moment.
A moment so perfect; a crystal is formed to mark its existence.
Clear and faceted
like a wise old woman who has lived.
I want to live. NOW. with you.
