Separation and union

the waters divide
lovers are marooned
one at head, other at heart
between them looms
desert of desire

magnetism connects
all scattered coordinates
whispered in strobes of silence
reassuring yet falling short
of love’s tender embrace 

shape shifting soul
slides into thought cessation
transmuting as the space element 
whereupon as boundaries blur
the two become one again
