I WROTE THIS ABOUT YOU BEFORE WE MET

I am writing this right now

and you are reading this right now

but these times

are separated

by God knows how long.

God, perhaps,

and you.

But still, somehow

they are of the same instant;

the moment I put these words down

and the instant you take them in.

Somewhere in the universe

this is direct communication

fluid and vital

to our continued life

as I show

that I knew

you would be here

eventually

as, clear to you,

you are.
