Less is more

The mind
           the years
the memories
           stirred

out of dust
           thought
at the speed
           of light

as the synapse
           snaps
electrifying
           love

where
           have I been
all my life
           time shared

times shared
           though we
cannot agree on
           the coordinates

what of the moon
           what of Venus
all my days
           all my nights
