Back To Formula

Something about the way that he loved her,
Took her all the way back to formula,
Took her back beyond
To some motionless shore.
And something about him, reassured her
That Life was there
To cradle and rock her,
And nourish her, even
Long before she was born.
And Life would be there,
Even and especially,
At that place
Where time and space divided,
And his Love
Would wait there
For her to come again.
