Again and yet again
So close me, ever so close you
Nothing else do we want,
But trying so intensely, so hard, together to meld into one
But is that 'it' you ask, is that 'it' I too think,
Soon after the inborn instinct
To crush each of us against each other into one
So flooding an emotion, so compulsive in its own way
Drowning every noise emanating within, crushing every rebel in there
Annihilating each question asked
In that moment every hesitation,
Every fear pounded- grounded
Defaced for that instant
Yet, not beyond repair.
It is ever, but over, like it always is
Like a rule, after we are spent
And we set about our concerns
Hurrying, clothing, running away
To attend to our debts
Forgetting what everything that is us
For yet another few hours.
