Love in Arizona

You are from California 
I am from the Midwest 
But we met in Arizona 
And went to the desert 
To measure thorns 
Of the lonely, dispersed cactuses 
Measure the light rays, 
Measure the distance, 
Between us and the world 
Measure the love and kisses and screams 
In the solemn silence of the desert.
 
We kissed the dusty ground 
And asked the dry land for a reason 
But the ground was silent 
And we got silent 
There was no measure no reason 
Only life, only life, 
In the dead desert 
And we kissed more 
And did not ask or look for a reason 
Anymore
