In quiet moments, in slow and subtle ways, its nature is revealed
The ocean licks up against the shoreline
And I wonder where you are
And how you allow me to continue like this
Absent from you,
Taking ages and tides into my self
Why this long wait, why this incarnation
Down here
And I understand there is work to be done
Stars to light
And ships to guide home
But I had a promise,
Long ago now
For kind company
And kisses
My eternal life so wonderfully bound into the heart and hands of human form
I can sleep the most epic of sleeps
And slide through space
Without time
To wake each day
Anew
Yet curious of the absence of you
Each night I’m sure I find you
Or in strange ways you meet me smiling at the sunset
But this life is full and must be counted on more than two hands
