On the Other Side of Time

 Such a moment—is this what they call blessed time?
 Let this instant be ours,
 come, let's circle back, leaving the world behind
 for that distant path
 where everyone has fallen asleep,
 where emptiness alone pursues time,
 across that endless sky the stars burn
 and silent wind stays awake.
 When day dies out
 stars bloom in clusters,
 I'll drift there in the folds of air.
  
 Your heart against my chest,
 the two merge and become one,
 as if a bodily moment slips quietly away, shedding flesh,
 you-and-I and I-and-you together shape this auspicious hour,
 we are lost, love remains,
 when night sleeps, the heart wakes.
