Temorarily Release

You represent freedom
an opening, a crack
the slight sliver in this plaster
a tiny hole in this foundation

I need to slide through
bend my body to
conform to your opening and
push in, bow down
fit within the seams
as best I can

It is my one opportunity for escape
Release
Sanity
Breathe

So I cling to you
grasp onto your moving form
clench to this one opportunity
the slight chance to
escape
exhale
submit
if only temporarily

Simply Put

Simply put,
you are

life and love
heaven and earth
yen and yan
sun and sky
moon and stars
peace and war
beginning and end
joy and love
pain and hurt
temporary and forever
right and wrong
long and short
wet and dry
wide and narrow
future and past
life and death.
