Two Whole People
As people we are not just halves of souls
Do not pursue completion as but one.
We’ll find security in our own roles
And we’ll be stronger than when we’d begun.
Our time together moves too quickly, dear.
Since time itself we sorrowfully lack
I would not hesitate to hold you near
To never feel alone, mislaid in black
Lo, in the end it’s all irrelevant,
But insignificance is tractable
When holding you my love, so elegant.
Around you my concerns are placable.
Combined there’s nothing we won’t rise above
We needn’t feel afraid of lust nor love
