Echoes in the Expanse
Out of the Universe's
innumerable starry throng
by chance we meet
not for long
One day from me you will vanish
or I from you,
although we don't wish
dissolved in time's unyielding beat,
never to be together
nor again meet.
Except you live in mind,
and I linger in yours,
till forever you and I wane
into the immeasurable expanse.
In this vast crowd
I clasp your hand, lest
I should lose you in the bustling fuss.
