Love is a Virtue

The Honored Queen

We met at the Biochemistry building, but we were looking for Quantum Mechanics. I remember it like it was yesterday. Perhaps it was. I remember how I swam in those feelings of love. And you gave me a necklace like the kind the angels wear. I would never take it off. But you would take off your sweater... and you would watch me watching you.

But it's deeper, isn't it. It's so much deeper than even that. Sometimes it scares me because I know I'm falling and there just doesn't seem to be any bottom. There is no landing, is there? The expected landing never happens. You just fall faster and faster.

I'm getting to know you better now. I'm so happy that you have let me into your garden. I cannot read your mind. I cannot tell the future with cards or crystal balls. I don't know how to get closer to you now. But, here, in this garden that so many fear, the joy of your presence is my celebration. I want to be closer to you. Can you help?
