Stay

Stay with me
You have shown me a new vista
You brought me to a place I have never been
Please don't leave me here to enjoy it alone
As if alone and enjoy can live in the same sentence
Only once around the 8 is not nearly enough
A single taste of infinity is almost cruel
Better to have swallowed the blue pill
But the red one has already started to work
The blind receives sight
As the rays first illuminate the retinas
Will the storm cut the lights back to blackness?

Song of Solomon 5:5-6

I arose to open to my beloved

And my hands dripped with myrrh,

And my fingers with liquid myrrh,

On the handles of the bolt.

I opened to my beloved,

But my beloved had turned away and had gone!
