The magnetic
Hypnotic
Energetic
Psychotic
Force that brought me to you
Has made my world the
Antithesis to what it used to be
Before you……
It was vacant and solid.
Where there was once an ache
Now grows a life that sprung from
your energy in mine
my hands
though every bone is in tact
and every inch is unscratched
are incomplete without yours
wrapped around them
my eyes
though with each lash in position
and without obstruction to my vision
are wondering without yours
to stare into.
I could go on and on
But I won’t because the little one
Is alone and scared.
I’ll tell her
“don’t be scared. There are those who love you,
and who have, long before your physical existence
on this planet. You will find them all eventually
and the world will be all the more kind
with every day you know them.”
Or maybe I’ll just say
"it’s ok sweetie go back to sleep”
because it would be unfair of me to sum it up in
one breath.
Don’t you think. December 29, 2000
