This rendezvous
is
where our universes melt
in silent fires.
Come,
surrender
to this emptiness
for what fills us is ash.
And
beyond contours
of I and You
watch a gentle flame
of 'us' dance...

This is beautiful and understated. It is well done. I was surprised by the ash line and it was fresh.

Lovely poetry. Only when we allow ourselves to be empty can we be filled again - the same applies to any relationship....the "us".
