Infinity

If in this infinity of people Something tuned to my existence Is astonishing in nature How do I reconcile this being How do I integrate my heart With yours so as not to tread on this wisdom With all your light Creativity and hard won insights to self The heaviness I feel at attacks On one so present with experience And by nature such depth reveals itself Slowly Touch points and connection Art, architecture and aesthetics I feel at points, touched with the recollection Of the nights ardent caresses Of its wit, and whispers Of its easy smiles Of its lack of duress Of your scent The weight of your gaze As heavy as lead moving through me Fireflies and electricity You’re the butterfly on my shoulder The taste of whisky on my lips The fingers curled around mine I see infinity in the gold of your eyes As we walk through our kiez I’ll walk life with you This realness is so easy So free But for now, I float with memory
