My special friend, <br />you are not somewhere else. <br /> <br />You are my very being <br />closer than breath <br />more personal than my beating heart <br />more intimate than secret thoughts. <br /> <br />The world has no barriers <br />no inside or outside <br />it is open... <br /> <br />Grass and trees our lungs, <br />the rhythms of seasons and <br />oceans' pulse our heart, <br />the light of stars, thought. <br /> <br />Always it is a new universe <br />where subject and object <br />are the same. <br /> <br />You wait quietly, <br />patiently.<br /><br />Ian Trousdell<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/awareness-you-are-not-somewhere-else/
