It will always feel
like you are losing me
as soon as you get too close.
Today I wanted to stay home
and write all day
and tomorrow
the same
but what silly thoughts
are these?
Trust me, that as soon
as you need me
it’s time to let me go.
Can you cut off
all the media?
All that noise?
I can.
I have.
I will.
I must.
Can you track me down
to see how I feel?
Can you close in on me
from everywhere?
Surround me with your strength
disarm me with your gentleness
the gap between the two
obscure
wide and approaching.
I see it from all angles
of this square
or that circle
or whatever you want to
call a shape within my mind
within a form
within an outline of my love.
For if you have my body
it comes with a soul
united.
Others can separate the two
discuss politics like sports
stir wet and dry ingredients
simultaneously
but I can save the day
with my frosting abilities
my inner sparkles that shine.
Soul and body
not that hard to disconnect the dots
that are invisible.
Reading Little Prince
again,
it appears life needs no explanation
while I was boarded up
with nails
until you
resurfaced me.
Believe me, I have always
known how to walk into a room
full of people I know,
the trick is to do the same
with strangers.
I have always known
everything about me.
He reads my eyes and
that in itself is another
book
not written
(yet).

Some words, the best of them not only remind me of home but take me there, again and again.
