Like when you hear that song with the chord that shivers
your soul
Or lift your head to follow the curve of the hawk’s flight
You meet those eyes in a quantum moment
You are here, it doesn’t matter where
It’s not once in your fairy tale life of loneliness and
miracles
That opened your mind at that moment of perfection
There are so many crossed paths and crossed lives
Expand into space and breathe that terrible ache deep into
your heart
Say yes and step onto the dusty pavement
Laugh at the pain and the battering sun and yes
The death and the life and those eyes
It’s already ended but it must begin
Your car is waiting, it’s time to get in
