one love

don't you see
how your roots
go into my soul?
how you and I
are entwined
beyond reason?
how what you feel
carves my being
as much as it does yours?
how what you push away
comes to me
and so to you?
how when you reach
for the sun and the stars,
you draw me up too
through those veins?
and how when you leave
you pull out roots
that belong to us,
to this world,
leaving it with holes
that cannot be filled
with anything
but you,
your roots
into this
one love.
