Are you all I want?
Not all all.
But you are here,
and that is enough,
you are here as presence
for me and if I think
beyond the borders
of the now, perhaps
that is a dream that can
never be reached.

You are here in all your
humanity, with gaps and
crevices that I perceive after
all these years, and though
I, in my desire for more,
dream a different course,
you are here, planted, rooted,
and that is enough.
