I Came Across A Pillar

I came across a pillar

It was broad, but not as broad as our love

It did not bridge the seas as our love does.

It was an inanimate object

Unable to move, not fresh

But unused and different.

It may have been a stone image

But its stone would melt in her eyes.

She could turn the horizon to dust

And dust is much greater than mere stone.
