Tu Omnia

When faces are pressed together
Foreheads resting,
Noses touching, and
Breath is shared,
I see the cosmos in thine eyes
Full of infinite wonder and possibility.

The specks of an iris
Closely resemble to specks of star dust
From which...

Patience

Not yet
Not now
Maybe later

Just one more thing I desire that remains out of my grasp

Another failing
Another obstacle
Another delay

When they keep moving the finish line?

Slipping

With baited breath
And tearful eyes that threaten to spill

How long must I wait
For the pieces to fall into place
So that they have had enough time to fall properly

How long must I wait
And be told some...

And make my heart feel free of weight,
It remains tethered down by a stark heaviness
Whose chains I cannot shake.
