Unspoken Limits

You

And I

Both know

What's going on.

Whether we are

Near or away

From each other

We are bounded.

Two poles

Alongside

A Flowing river

Our infrastructures

Are bounded

To the ocean floor.

Yet

We never touch.

We never cross

One another's paths.

So

I

Can

Reveal myself

I stay quiet.

For you talk

I listen

But

Do not hear you.

Because

Internally,

You are also silent.

Today

I see you

And you see me.

Together

We are one.

You step closer to me

As we are equidistant.

My eyes seek his soul.

Not his heart.

He looks at me

Compassionately.

Relentlessly

As I reach my arms

Towards his shoulders

And he guides his arms

Towards my torso

I strike him

With my blade

Across the back.

His eyes bewildered

Confused.

Before asking the question, Why?

I touch

His cold cheek

With my transmogrified palm

And kiss him gently.

As I spread my wings

I consumed his psyche

And traveled back

To my World

Of Unspoken Limits.
