So It Is You

So it is you who will impart her soft, sweet scent of breath in one transcendent journey over time and space to reach me here, suggesting to my heart and to my hungry mind, that there is more than substance to the air I breathe, more than longing when I think of you so far away from me, but closer than a kiss. I cannot seize a gift like that, but only in humility receive it, for in its creation you have stolen of yourself and made it part of me. Kisses there will be upon the cyber waves, and unsurpassed in sweetness, yet in this vapor floating now within me, I may see an altar to a love that no one else may see or know, for it made travesty of journeying in just a single cosmic flight that joined an I to you and wrapped your gift forever unconsumed in one eternal flame. ~
