    But not
    this one,
    my lover!

    If one
    line could
    change a
    life, create
    a whole
    new order
    of this
    world, turn
    it inside
    out, and
    upside down,
    shake it
    quivering into
    a whole
    new life,
    then this--
    one line
    (smiling, as
    two lines
    became one):

    "for the words are never shiny as the stars
    and i cannot photograph the rhythmic light of longing."

    taken from
    our duet
    thread (hard
    to believe
    written now,
    two years ago
    and before
    we'd even
    met!), still
    links us,
    forever as
    published together,
    first time,
    the forgotten
    'zine of
    our finding,
    and if
    there was
    one piece
    of all
    those 200,
    or all
    those before,
    or after,
    or still,
    this is
    the One--
    from my
    One, to
    me, that
    probably always
    will be,
    of all your
    most wonderful,
    the One,
    that brought
    us to
    this life
    together,
    & this still
    grabs me
    by the
    heart and
    yanks me
    by its
    strings,
    takes it
    to a whole
    new level,
    changed our
    world, forever,
    brought bliss,
    to be followed,
    and opened
    doors to
    our now
    remembered future.

    And now,
    I long
    no "more".

    I love you.
    You are Beautiful.
    I am grateful.

    yr boy
