Magnificence

As I listen to the words you use
To describe your feeling
        I feel too
       At the exact moment,
To express the idea brushing past
       my mind, too, just then
I shudder at the familiarity of you.
The magnificence of these
Coincidences of our minds is such
It opens up in me the doors
        I shut long ago
It awakens the parts of my soul
        I put to sleep for good.
I feel like
A dying river in first rain
A baked mountain in snowstorm
The only thing that is left is
Absolute submission to
The torrent of joy
about to follow.
Then, I am yours.
Such is the scary magnificence of
Your presence.
