SOULMATES

A beginning and an end?
These, I do not see,
merely a spanning from
my limitless within
to the centre of your own,
into a vastness I am
blessed to know,
to construe. 

Oceans could not sunder
me from you, from
all you love and cherish.
Your echoes resound
in the caverns of
their beings; traces of
your light glister
in their inmost flame.

I could traverse this space
in a moment, borne
upon a single heartbeat
across this starfield,
over these arcing crystalline
swaths into your
waiting arms. Do we not
embrace upon every horizon?

What are time and distance
to us whose souls
were wed as they sparked
into being?-Merely
transience, a fleeting preface
to their eternal melding.
