we haven't seen in... years
memories--folded, refolded,
stored safely like souvenirs
stored safely like souvenirs
so when you reach across
the table to take my hand
I already know how you'll
want to summon a heaven
so full of holes, we lost
places, people, all we still
seek--yet our hands open
to applaud how light leaks in
Title:
Leonard Cohen--"There's a crack in everything, that's how the light gets in."
Rumi-- "Stay with it. The wound is the place where the Light enters you."
