My first sweet breath...as I drew it in, you were there
ancient souls in a new body peering through curious eyes

My first sweet taste…as it passed my lips, you were there
hungry souls in a marauder’s body savoring life’s bounty

My first sweet love…as it filled my vessel, you were there
entwined souls in a rhythmic body breathing in one another

My first sweet heartbreak…as the fabric tore, you vanished
abandoned soul in a quaking body seeking solace in darkness

My first sweet awakening…as it shone in my eyes, you were there
reunited souls in a soaring body embracing one another

My last sweet breath…as it escapes my lungs, you are there
flooded souls in a spent body released…manna to the Universe
