Gap

You told me once
that you were afraid.
Afraid that when you came back
from the road of transformation
that there would be no one to love you.
My dearest flame,
There is not a single soul
on this planet
that yearns for you more than I.
It matters not the minutes or the miles
that lay between us.
Quiet your Self
and listen.
I am in the small hush
between waves crashing on golden shores.
I am shrouded in the void
between the spaces of ticks on the clock.
I am the silenced howl
from one breeze to the next.
I am in the brief blackness
that you see only when you blink.
To think that you are alone
in this wretched world
is folly.
I am in all things
as you are for me.
