"Let's go carve out a nook..."

Let’s go carve out a nook,

where, alone, we’ll commence

to both read the same book

from its opposite ends.

We will meet in the middle.

In your eyes, I will scan

for the clue to the riddle -

where the story began.

Time will tell us its secrets,

if we break the routine -

rearranging the sequence

with the ends in-between.

Let the world close around us -

we’ll devise a new world,

where the moment is boundless

sequenced out of its hold.
