Across the bounds of reason
From here in my head to your eyes
Across the bounds of reason
Is a leap of imagination.
Between us lies the universe
A tangled web of conjecture
With reasoned insinuation.
From here to there is too far
To be sure of anything
Least of all substantiation.
And from here to here is too near
To form an opinion
When all life is just infatuation.
What I see may be as it seems
Or just one of my dreams
Without seams to separate me from the gleam
That streams
From your eyes
Across the enormity of size
Despite it all we may yet be real
With time stood still
In a smile
