One of love's mysteries
When we unite in love
to join each others' bodies
melting into one,
there is a problem when we separate,
when our union splits in two
and I don't know which one I am -
the person we made up together
or the other person that I became a part of
but had to leave, as we departed?
I am still inside you and a part of you
like you remain within me
as an inalienable part of me.
Thus we remain one person
although we are two different bodies,
or are we?
Are our bodies just two instruments
for our souls to reunite into one,
while the bodies matter less
in this completely fulfilled fusion?
That is one of love's many mysteries
that ever multiply and separate,
creating new personalities
each time two persons melt into one.
