Someday we’re going back
Down the narrow tunnel
With the exit light buzzing at the end
All our grudges done with
No time for one last glance,
One final apology-
The sundial under midnight shadow;
The clocks hands forever stopped.
There’s no arguing or pleading then-
Let me stretch out my hand to you now
To offer human warmth and dignity
Let my tongue flow freely
With whatever may occur to me
Let us two commune in words and in silence:
The present is all we ever have
Even if the days seemed stacked
On top of each other, an endless procession
Only one breath brings us in, and only one breath
Delivers us to the cradle of everlastingness.
One Breath Away
