For a long time,
I have considered-
No, I have definitely scrutinized the odds,
The peculiar pull of knowing that there is more to be known.
Not just more, but someone-
One person who gets most of my quirky tendencies-
An equal confident and best-friend
Who doesn’t reject my instinct to pull away-
(Because unfortunately, I happen to do that when I am afraid)
To accept possibility-
There is comfort in a glance,
The tremendous effort of a half-smile and the complexity of a furrowed brow
Seemingly acknowledging a sacred connection without having to dance –
deferring judgment-
launching a paradigm shift that changes fault lines to linear truths,
rest assured
providential circumstances prevent time from being threatened again-
peaceful salutations deliver ground-breaking awareness-
it always seems too difficult
to shift from one side to another
from yes, to no, to well, maybe I will
to finally, I definitely cannot find another answer, other than yes-
to wonder and wander in dreams beyond fantasia,
diving deep into the depths of the sacred universe
it is much too similar to holding a kite in the middle of a storm,
and it supposedly happens-
just like it always happens in the movies-
between
Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan
the maximum power of vulnerability
transforms the miniscule molecular fibers of the wounded spirit
to inspire the reconciliation and introduction of hope within a new beginning-
and it might be called conversing-
or simply defeating former complexities
that previously existed-
or it might be called a proper introduction.
