Phasing

I.

I’m right where you are.

Exactly

in the same

Space

occupying the same

spot as you-

Because-

as we merge

and melt I find

my thoughts

have traveled

to a place

deep inside you-

and I feel you

deep inside me-

And I know—

There is no separation

more painful.

II.

My love, where have you gone?

so far from me—and yet—

I thought you would

return.

There are no words,

now,

no lyrical expressions of

Sorrow and sorry for everything

I didn’t do, and never did,

but was it worth it

in the end?

III.

Lying and lying away

from you I fall

And Fall and

fall again, and where are you?

In all my memories

the ones I miss

the most

are you.

Oblivion

is lovely

and quiet

But numbness gets old

And cold

Feelings, you know,

don’t suit me.

IV.

I thought you made me burn, for a moment,

But it was just a speck of light

reflecting from

the flecks- of

Light-

in your irises.

V.

You were so lovely then.

And lovelier still, you have

become, so dear, and so

Lovely—

The corner of your

mouth twitches with a

Smile, that begs me to breathe

the soft sigh

from your lips.

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
