We met.
A portal opened
When we met.

Entered we upon a vastness
Revealing that of which I had been told
But had not known,
Until we met.

Because we met,
I now know that love exists,
Endlessly.

I now know that, although we
Will never again touch,
Nor gaze together into that vastness,
Nor again speak of it to each other,
Love exists.

I now know,
because we met.

And, as when we, together,
Gazed upon love's awesome splendor, I am,
Even apart from you,
Forever opened, and open
To love.

Because we met.
