Desiderata In Juxtaposition

Younger, brighter, and more luminous
Than before, in an evolutionary process of happiness
Knowing you, communicating with you
Just being there

Paradoxical life holds many juxtaposed nuances
Whereby the truth rests in between the parallel
Waves that flow out from the organic forms
Of human dance

Just knowing you in time and space
Heals the pain that intertwined with
The pleasurable waves 

When I dreamed of the future that would come
I hoped you would have lit the candle
By the time two chords would have been wound up
Into one colorful, twisting rope
On the day of our reunion

Desiderata, with her nuances,
Will have represented those desires that we all have,
Those of the wisely chosen love pangs,
Those of the spiritual chords that intertwine
Across space and time
