the arms he eyes
From billions of bodies
hanging twice as many arms,
hers are but one pair and yet
this thought, it somehow calms
the boy, though only briefly
until he solves equations
to the question on his heart,
of the chance that those arms
hold him – just one lonely part
in billions.

As a person who deeply treasures the feeling of my love’s arms around me, and wrapping mine around him, I am moved by this.
