Swallow up all My light,
I'll swallow up all Your light.
It's a dance
as soon as you touch me.

half my cells expire,
the others all breathe in;
a billion whole and fragment

I hope that what I love kills me.
and before I end up circling
on and on and on again
without much noise or notice.
I hope I'm not surprised to find
that nothing is okay,
but that it's not all bad.

I hope that, in the end
I'm swallowed up
by all that touches me.
