With white walls, windows, words amidst us;
we were the width and breadth of the world
a dozen dimensions of undivided devotion of focus
folded into a knot of longing
tugging souls into eachothers' orbit
Her gaze boring a hole through wholeness
hungrily, wholly, inhaling my heart
Even hailing from opposite poles of the planet,
we belonged to the same space
the sediments of our sentiments cemented together
No hint of hesitance
Like we'd dated each other's dreams for a decade
First date frustration a fleeting phantom,
haunting other's nightmares
no place in our private plane of reality
There were no Ps and Qs to mind, no queue to stand in line
Just cues in hand, then hand in hand, a cue that it was time
to trade the pub for the park, the bright for the sensuous dark
and enter irreverently, irrevocably into shared understanding
opposites may attract, sure,
but similar souls are inseparable
a cosmically fundamental bond that will persist
through the blazing, apocalyptic end of all else that exists
or even
feeble
inconsequential
distance
and time.
