I Know You

I know you
I keep seeing glimmers
reflections like shining angles
of your diamond soul
more often than I knew
sparking recognition
when time forgot me.

Behind that smile, 
the being, the wordless eye
between the worlds
the space around your body 
echoes to me a cry
that never dies.
Like a kiss 
around my shapeless heart.

Our hearts swell
and our tears will melt
the lonely disposition
of what we felt
before we met
our finer selves
once again
in each other’s gaze.
