I couldn’t fathom how I could spend a moment
without a conversation; yet, I have spent a lifetime.
That love was meant to be a quietude, like a window
opaque from the outside and transparent from the inside
So, I could see and remain unseen. We have lived
in such cradles of contradictions; to be innocent
and yet to be wise; and to be diminutive and humble
and yet to stand tall. How many lessons have I learned?
It is, yet a mystery how I learnt them with no teaching
And among the most important is the one that I love,
with so much immensity and intensity, you!
That it is like a mere whispering wind; yet, so unimaginably
overwhelming, that it blows across the universe!
You know I have felt the deux es machina
in your pulse that I never held, but its beat
struck the home of my heart like an eternal lightening.
You can say my frail heart thumped with thunders
that exhibited its voluble strength. I am more than imagination,
because, like you, I am a creation of myself
from the very origins. The makers maketh themselves
in their manifestation that is greater than ethereal
and having no source, but a memory and reminder of their love!
