From Zero

from zero i have to
go again to some

one like you.
for i am nothing

and will always be
nothing

without you.

and then you come
very simply
as a smile

a pat on my back
and then
a hold

on my hand
my heart begins
to beat

like i am some
one
for you

and then we are
here
from ground
zero

a leaf falls
a little wind blows

a lock of hair
on my palm

the first step
to a kiss

i sit here
remembering
things again

three women
are carried
up
on an elevator

as i watch
with a bottle
of mineral water
beside my hand.
