CAFE NOIR » What a time to be alive.

The Forever Mourn

Even as we embrace, beloved:
Son, daughter, friend, lover,
With each other, beside each other, within each other,
Our souls deeply, desperately entangled,
So tantalizingly close,
Yet forever distant, forever mysterious,
Forever intoxicating, forever other,
I forever mourn for you.
And yet, joyfully we embrace.

(h/t Nayyirah Waheed, Peter Rollins, Hans Zimmer & Benjamin Wallfisch)
