The Gravity Between Us
Calling unto you,
be ready when I get there.
Be grounded in your air,
so I can greet your descent.
Breathe me into your essence
until we are colliding.
Don’t let the idiom of a
simple touch undo our hard-won
patience.
We will defy gravity,
pushing beyond our vertical hush,
not falling for the temptation of
adequacy.
