A flower reaches to the sun:
it never touches, but achieves.
The wind listens as we listen back;
the sea understands, the stars speak.
Take away arms, I love you;
take away legs, I love you;
take away eyes, I love you;
no more body,
no more name,
no more “you”:
I love you.
You stand before my eyes
ten thousand feet away
and all I see
is that lover inside me.
How can we be separate from ourselves?
Run! Escape the perfection of God!
As I watch, to behold the impossible.
it never touches, but achieves.
