To Know Her
I believe if we knew love as more than four letters,
perhaps when we met her, we would let her stay.
I believe when we all know her on a first name basis,
she will still somehow look like hundreds of faces.
I believe that where love is,
there healing also dwells.
In the little house that is so often driven by.
The very thing that hurt me, healed me.
So I believe in her,
because she believes in me.

Very, very skillfully written. Very, very keenly observed and very, very deeply felt. Just beautiful in a painful sort of way.
