In the end, what is there to be, but alone?
To recognize at last and say goodbye
To all those things that were not I;
To join the others who wait eternal
For another touch of another breath that is life;
The passage that returns and returns,
As we start alone, and end alone,
And in between have those great and grand adventures,
Where each awakening is a reconnection to the memory
Of that other part of ourselves;
Once separate,
Then joined,
Then not.
