Compelling

how is it I knew you
before we met
a destiny cannot be
denied when it is set
it has no barriers
to place and time
the right word follows
for it is rhyme
there is real evidence
in all matter
its touch begins in tremble
and ripples in scatter
the essence of edge
so much part of the middle
to be yourself and part of another
the eternal riddle

I’m not disappointed,  I never expected anything from you.

The heart of you

I always thought that the eternal riddle was, "If a tree falls in the forest?"

Thank you.

What light through yon window breaks?  It is the east, and Juliet is the sun.
