I want to love you as ice against this world’s sun, to melt in your presence, to fill up life in warm patience. To become all that is wondrous in your splendor. To stand beside you knowing my soul is here covering each puddle in your way. Even in secrets you would hold all keys to every moment that could be open. Let me lay atop mountains so I may call down your name in a stream of peaceful collapse over seas of avalanches. I fall to this wrecking with open desires, willfully forever beside you in time’s continuing hand. Touch me stillness, I know you are near.
