and i look at you, your body reduced to red green and blue

and you look at me, through the metal and fiberglass

and we see each other and we dont,

what did it take for the light reflected from your skin

to hit the soft tissue behind my eyes,

copper gold aluminium zinc iron and nickel

and some of the smartest minds in history

a century of research, just for your collarbones,

and something so primal made manifest through

something so unnatural, inorganic, abstract,

expressions of ecstasy through expressions and exceptions,

the light turned off but you are illuminated through my sight

through miles of air just so you can see me the way i am

just so i can see you so close i can touch you

and you can touch me
