this too is true

i have given myself to you
and taken you
whole
hungerly
and without reason.
your everything
holding my everything
your whispers
answering my questions
movement and stillness
opening and closing

each time
i too
have been amazed by our closeness
despite the
distance
& the
shredded fantasies
of the future
we both abandoned ages ago


and
even with every light on
what should seem reckless
careless
or shameful
looks remarkably
pure
without a single promise
scope of clarity
direction
or distance.
i can let go now.
  & so can you

be well on that journey
may the wind be at your back.
