the edges of myself

the worlds i’ve moved through

since meeting you–

gratitude does not begin to cover

the debt i feel i owe–

 

realizing the maximum

of all that i am

and understanding

that i have yet barely scraped the surface.

 

knowing that as i rise–

you rise with me– 

our expansion exponential

when walking together.

 

fallen paradigms

like billboards

along the highway

almost comical in their presentation–

 

allowing for the certainty

that no one has

what we do

but we two.

 

each moment sacred

and heartening–

whether you’re standing

next to me or miles away…

 

your presence in my life

is constant.  

that you exist–

nothing more is necessary.
