THE BOND
Alone, and then not alone,
heat, and then, no heat,
here, and then, not here,
gone, and then, gone for good,
hunger, and then, waiting for food,
time, and then, no time like the present
to repair a broken heart.
I just knew my sanity would be torn asunder,
but then, found love, and more love in the universe
to fill my gaping wound.
Delighted, to be together again,
and then, deep sleep, calm and peace.
