Where you are, I will embrace you,
With love and affection.
Out of a solitude it speaks,
It begins and ends in silence.
Strange in this urgent, and oddly
Self-conscious way of speaking across time.
An immediate, intense, and unsettling form.
The gift of intimacy and interiority,
Privacy and participation.
My words, made in a mouthful of air,
Out of breath, after speaking to you.
Your heartbeat , pulses through me,
As an embodied sensual experience.
The relation, is in the beginning.
It crosses frontiers, and outwits the temporal,
It seeks to defy, coming to disturb and console you.
They are only meant to terrify and comfort,
Sormount distamce, bridge the gulf.
Out distance time, bridge the chasm,
It survives change, incites to create.
It survives customs, and the ravages,
It survives Us.
