SHINING

I wrote once:

    ...your presence in my life
    is an enlightenment
    once inspired by your soul
    trying to twine
    with mine

there are always
somewhere
two souls twining

some abide only for a moment
some never convoke

some quarrel
in a frenzy
aghast in disconcert

as if they never believed
they could be

Do they remain
afraid
bemused
and fearful?

I wrote once:

    ...your presence in my life
    is an enlightenment
    that first made me happy
    and then
    it made me sad.

there are always
somewhere
two souls disjoining

some cleave only for a moment
some never return

I always thought that separation
is only a phonetic

and it is achieved only
in a sacred apparition
so it could reconcile fear

fear is a part of passion
is it not?

I wrote once:

    ...your presence in my life
    is an enlightenment
    that lasts beyond sadness
    pure and chaste
    like whisper

there are always
somewhere
two souls twining.

Some abide forever.
