Words
help us define
the way sea turns into sky
the way left becomes right
the way day rises from night.
Words
pin us down to this earth.
Otherwise we would have left.
I would have followed your footsteps
walking toward infinity.
You and I,
we live in words
we dance through words
we make love with words
we are words.
Words
the invention of the lonely
the ultimate intimacy
the bridge between you and me
the child between you and me.
Together,
we create words
we refine words
we play with words
we become words.
And so Our Love
is eternal
behind these words.
