Descent

How can you be with me
When I am with you
but in your minds reel?

Tell me,
how I can be without your love 
when I am with you vividly
but in my dream?

I know where the peaks are,
The creeks and the springs you go to,
to fetch your water
that flows without borders…
And I see the mountains,
Where you climb your doubts
And find your place.

Can you come down
make your peace?
