Be As Two Vines

Go on then ––
              give yourself permission to feel.
Find someone who does this for you,
              somewhere with light.
And then be as two vines on a trellis.
               a tangle of leaves and arms and all.
Take root in the moment,
               but not the dirt.
Then leave when the sun leaves the sky.

Recall this feeling as the darkness grows ––  
               the light on the vines.
There will be light once more.
