Where is now?
\nI have misplaced it.
\nI live in the past,
\nin the future,
\nnow has no name.
\nI simply exist,
\nand between you and me,
\nthat is enough.
\nThere is no death in now,
\nalthough I am dying.<\/p>\n
I have learned
\nthat walls disappear in now.
\nThey need the history
\nof wood and stone.
\nIn now,
\nthey have no place to stand.
\nIf I place them there,
\nlike a cloud,
\nlike the separation
\nof light and shadow,
\nI walk through them
\nand they disappear.<\/p>\n
So too are eyelids, mouths and faces.
\nMy loved ones,
\ngoing about their lives in now.
\nThey are always here,
\nfinding me,
\nshouting,
\ngoing away.
\nBut we are together,
\nsometimes half a world away,
\nfeeling the openness of a beach,
\nhearing music in a street,
\npassing windows with silver eyes.<\/p>\n
All together,
\nwoven by cords of touching
\nand calling,
\nwalking through rooms,
\ngazing into cups.
\nThe past is illusion,
\nthe future a tomb.
\nOnly here,
\nin the presence of a heartbeat
\ndo I recall
\nsomething called time.<\/p>\n
An hourglass of grain
\nflowing,
\none side to another
\nin the space of now.
\nIt doesn\u2019t matter.
\nWhat happens is a dream.
\nTime,
\nthe invisible side of nothing. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
