Kensho (poem for Farzi)


When I fell
In love with you
I awakened
To a truth
Waiting behind
The hidden gate
That never before
Had I really
Loved at all

Looking into
Your open eyes
Seeing you
Seeing me
The protective veil
Of separation
Torn asunder
From between
Revealing and discovering
Exposed and embraced
Advancing, retreating
Back-to-back
Face-to-face
Lips-to-lips
Hands-to-hands
Fingers touching
Tips-to-tips
