The space between two who are reaching toward each other and choosing not to close it, the reaching itself becomes the shape of what they are to each other. Light falls on the distance and makes it visible. Neither one softens what they are; neither looks away. The steadiness each one brings from their own ground, arriving in the same moment, held open between them like something both are keeping alive.
