I see you everywhere

I see you everywhere,
Not in a form.
Your ghost flies into
The movement of the breeze,
Through the branches out this window. And I
Turn my head and see you in the cracks in the walls.

I feel you pulsing through the solid surfaces,
The rustling of papers,
The pang in my chest.
You strike without warning
And leave just so,
Flirt with your wink around every corner,
Coy and illusioned,
And insubstantial.

You are in time, you are the space
Between things, the movement from A to B.
But there are no stops, only infinity.
And you – we touch hands again and again,
Turn towards and away and back
Is our play,
Forever like there never was yesterday.

And I ask, what is my body to do?
I want no one – only you.
Only if the feeling is right.
Only if there is no doubt.
Only if every cell agrees.
Leave me unfinished
