The Resolute Testo

In my origin
And my destination
I have reached for you
I have traced my hands
Around your skin, your face
An image I have never known
I who pass through your eyes
The retina and the image
The objective light
Here, in the origin
The destination is the same
And I have never known them
As I know you right now
And I have never known you
How it is in time that we live?
How it is in life that we are?
Like crossing a stream of static
Slipping through a constant dynamic
The unchanging ever-changing
Life beyond stasis
Life beyond familiar
Where we reach out for the connection
The fusion of before and after
The beauty of our destruction
The resolute, self-collapsing
Instant at which we break down
Lose meaning, coherence
And so I am without you
And so I am within you
Reaching through time
And the timeless
