   Ilya Shambat to All   
   Bubble   
   17 Feb 21 15:04:52   
   
   From: ibshambat@gmail.com   
      
   We made a bubble of our minds -   
   Connected over the distance -   
   Our nerves together intertwined   
   And in their center, Our Existence -   
      
   Heartbeat to heartbeat - will to will -   
   Passion to passion - and to reason:   
   Keeping us in there from the chill   
   In every day - in every season -   
      
   And in the middle - in the core -   
   Were our own centers: In this bubble   
   They will be there, forevermore,   
   All times protected from the trouble.   
      
   The walls us from the world will keep   
   And in there we will be together:   
   In day, in night, in wake, in sleep   
   Like swallow safe within her feathers.   
      
   We made a bubble of our souls -   
   How hard it was though to sustain it!   
   To wait all day for you to call -   
   To keep away all that was tainted -   
      
   To keep alive, this heart to heart,   
   This mind to mind, this soul to soul,   
   To love you though we be apart -   
   And to retain this perfect whole:   
      
   The mental energy it took   
   Made me make most of every moment   
   My spirit tore, my body shook,   
   And I was in a passion's torment -   
      
   And then the bubble's walls concussed   
   As all its contents lay there scattered:   
   Eternal, present and the past   
   Of both the spirit and the matter.   
      
   The bubble burst; walls fell apart   
   And what was thought inside protected -   
   The throbbing souls, the beating hearts -   
   Were there, open and dissected.   
      
   It was as though the skin was flayed    
   As centers lay there undefended    
   I felt destroyed; you felt betrayed -   
   But something happened unintended:   
      
   I saw the beauty that is you,   
   You saw how much I cared for you,   
   I saw you from a closer view   
   And knew indeed that I adore you:   
      
   The bubble burst and spilt its core   
   But yet the dream has not been shattered:   
   I see you – clearer than before -   
   And I can love you even better.
