[to be read aloud]
i no longer believe in soulmates, but more like soul dates
people we pass through time with, if only for a moment
you see
soulmates would be stuck like glue, but we can only grasp with tape
i believe in miracles
in the miracle of you meeting me
and of us becoming a we
in the miracle of a blade of grass beating all the odds and
of someone loving someone so much that even time
is erased
and sometimes it is you who is the center of the universe
with entire galaxies unable to hold a flame to
the light that you emit
to you it is unexpected
but to me
the space you take is inevitable
