just let me

     just let 
Me give you all the love i can express
     until we meet
In person and are able to
Say with our eyes and with silence all the rest.
     yes,
This is true, and rare, and good, for not
In a thousand lifetimes could i forget you.
     my destiny has been decided, too.

     the
Very moment it happened i can't remember;
Everything has been so seamless,
     so rushing,
Lately. i only know that it happened
Very much as the sun rises and
Ends the night--
     seemingly all at once it is
There,
     and it is bright.

Regret,
     you've taught me already, is 
As self-defeating as surrender.
Instead, we will not hope--
No, we will know.
     and
Words, for so long my enemy,
Are now the perfect means of praise.
The poems are coming again,
Even as what i must say is new to me, and
Real, maybe for
     the first time.
