out there somewhere is a river not yet named
a mountain slowly rising
no eyes upon it still, no sense knows of its being
a sand dune unseen simmering
deep in the green below
under the swaying blue
breathes a creature i don’t know
uncatalogued, not turned into a species
no not yet not yet
a river flows from your eyes
a mountain rises in your heart
sand shifts through your veins
something remains
never to be known
nor named
when i know do i really know
or lose you
when i name do i surely go
and erase you
