The Reason

you are the reason
love abounds
love astounds me
and surrounds me
and then grinds me
into dust.

releases me into the air
to travel far and
meeting you there
neither created nor destroyed
mistaken for refuse
even then, overjoyed

at the chance to be a part
of the grand scheme

and this

this is why I am now the reason.
