Have You Ever Been A Lego

 Have you ever been

A lego

Or perfectly spread cream cheese on a bagel

The first crunchy honey crisp apple bite

The trick shot, nailed on the first try

Have you ever been

A gymnastic dismount, perfectly stuck

The actual stroke of very good luck

Pebble upon the water, leaving a trail of blips

As you skim the top, 22 skips

Have you ever been

One of a set

Of

Irresistibly attracted, happy magnets

That jump and spin and snap when they connect

Because the embrace is imminent

Have you actually ever been any of this

Better than a bystander, exclusively a witness

If you’ve ever been an event or an essence

If you’ve ever been an element or a presence

Then maybe you understand

What it feels like to be the half

Of this woman and this man

When her hand slips inside of my hand

Have you ever been a lego, locked perfectly together

Then perhaps you can conceive what it’s like when I am with her
