Feedback: yes, please, any comments welcome.

Comments: Set after the dotf; enough after that it's sunk in, but not so long that the pain isn't still fresh. Obi's dreaming. Many thanks to my Padawan Odette, whose fault this is entirely, and whose encouragement and caring is a very wonderful thing.



Shattering Souls


drawn
far from worlds known
on the depths above the heights
we meet
undulating; slide through
past all barriers of waking flesh
merged

we become more
you, and i, and 
this space between us
wrapped solid beneath our twisting limbs

twined
heat like lightning
strikes the heart, threads the veins
one beat, another, again... 

paused
breathless we listen
waves lap softly at the horizon of our soul
light reflects the depths, touches
all

wakes 

there is pain in separation like there never was in 
dream
