Observation
(←Time) Space He rushed like a river, carving paths through everything he touched, but I was all seven seas—deep, dark, unmeasured. He wanted love to be a direction, a destination, somewhere we could reach together. What folly! Love is not something you arrive at—it just is. I tried to hold still long enough for him to see me, to feel me, but he only understood motion. His movement was eternal, desperate to capture a moment, never realizing I had been here all along. In infinitum, Ad aeternum.
Replies by this mask
- “The flow of time is different for everyone. For some, a moment stretches into infinity; for others, years pass in an instant. It all depends on who’s waiting at the other end.” Arthur Eddington, Quantum Physicist (1882–1944)
- I bury my face in your chest I bring my lips to your flesh and try to whisper through the tissue, I speak through the shortest path to your heart: It is me I am the woman, I am the rib that you have been missing So let me in Let me come home
- we could be tangled in tree limbs climbing together you and me kissing we could be tangled in you and me limbs climbing each other kissing
Revision
🫲 I don’t know if this realm will remember us or what lies beyond the event horizon, but wherever we go, we go together.
