Cryptic Kiss Poem by Marieta Maglas

'I' means ‘Me'.
'We' comes out of the ‘I'.
I do not know myself nearly
as well as I think I do, but you know
me better than anyone else.

I am more than this
kinesthetic intelligence of us
trapped in this great chain of being that belongs to all of us,
when it gets stuck bouncing around between
this logic and this consciousness, which is
so limited that when too much
is asked of it, it starts dropping things.

I am more real than you,
because you are still asleep
in this world where we are awakening to reality.

I feel your cryptic kiss as
a metaphysical manifestation of your wish fulfillment,
or love. Maybe it is
a simple magnetic passion, or
only a slip of your tongue.
I do not know, but I know
that, in dreams, you kiss me. Then,
you really kiss me.

I feel your emotional need for
a happy life with a deep sense of peace.

Your emotion has a feminine voice.
You are the one.
One, sometimes, means wholeness.
'I' is ‘Me'
'We' comes out of the ‘I'.
