yesterday today tomorrow

another tomorrow


i live in a twilight world
between darkness and light
forever searching
for a time and a place
which does not exist
this time line granting
pleasure without permanence
love sans companionship
lust with no relief
my future forever a waiting
long days filled with dreams
of another tomorrow

belonging

what is the meaning of love
the aura of belonging
to own and to be owned
to prefer the domesticity of duality
to the simplicity of singularity
will we ever understand
what draws us to another
the yearning for their presence
the importance of their happiness
our absolute inability
to imagine life without them
chemical attraction
meeting of the minds
we seek always
to explain the inexplicable
we need to accept with gratitude
when the extraordinary is offered
unquestioning open our hearts and minds
to the greatest gift
the exquisite, the unfathomable
realization of a soul mate
