.................and all lovers?
(so still)

searching for reasons to be
searching for eachother still

amid the ruins and remnants
and the images that scare and scar us
continuously

...............still lovers?
(we are so still)

trembling slightly

remembering

what it is we are

and why "things" are the
"way they are" and what it is
that we still believe

of the Birthright
and
of the Name

................and all lovers?

I still

love you for the "risks" you take
trembling slightly
so fearlessly
