You are the giver and the taker

the chaos and the rest

the filler inside this thinning void

the praise inside my breath

who is who when seen together

we’re a match conceived in heaven

beyond beginnings without borders

who can separate these waters

when together there are no seasons

when apart there is no rest

there’s just You, the Patient Potter

and then there’s me, your faithful mess
