Selva

The whole jungle illuminated
And I only remember
The light that was yours and not electric
The air that escaped me in every syllable
I traveled in your quantum talk

You swallowed me with that cynical face
And I watched with my shortsighted eye
I tried to fit into your mathematics

How many encounters fit in a lifetime?
How many lives to live?
How much ground to walk?
How many suns will we see rise?
Worlds will collapse
Healing will emerge
And the two of us here

Your drunken cadence
I understand
I entrusted you with my karmic beliefs
You sang your doubt to me
Your skeptical beach, my mystical wave

I fantasized about your most intimate place
I answered you in my wettest place
We built bridges over liquid loves

How many encounters fit in a lifetime?
How many lives to live?
How much ground to walk?
How many suns will we see rise?
Worlds will collapse
Healing will emerge
And the two of us here
