If
alone
where would you be then
if the sky and moon and sun
were only yours
would you go?
what if everything you said
fell into silence
what if the universe was you
and only you
and you were nothing
only ego
would you stay?
what if everything you thought and felt
was only breathing, nothing to
hold on to
what if you were
only breathing
only instinct
nothing more
if you were something protozoan
would you want?
what if every touch
of every hand
of every kiss
on the back of your neck
in the dark
with the starlight glowing
dim
pavement warm under your back the sheets all
tangled up with sweat like glue
the sofa scratchy on your thighs and you can't move
the laughing into pillows
falling clumsy to the floor
what if every touch
of every hand
was one
was yours
was nothing
would you need?
what if time
what if string theory wormholes
deloreans could change
the where and when and who you are
what if earth was decimated and you fell
between the particles
into where you wish you were
would you try
would you stay
would you want?
what if one hand
and one hand
could
what if silence wasn't
and the voice you heard was true
what if something in your psyche made you realize the truth
was truth
and truth
is yours
what if time
and you
and this
could
somehow
stop
what if you could turn around
and look behind
and see
the things you saw before
would you stay?
what if you said yes
would you believe?
