they call the beginning
falling
in love––
afterwards, it is
being
in love
that matters––
being deeply
in love––
love
like the sky
that planets
circle
& clouds
explore––
the sky
that contains
the universe
in all its
ONE-ness––
just like
our two-ness
is ONE-ness––
the way
you disappear
into my arms
& the way
i vanish
into your
smile.
