Glimmer

I can think of no other;

And even the little hairs on my body rejoice at the thought of you,

Reaching for you

As you come near.

The heat at my center spreads

And the words fail to fall from my lips;

They cannot make the connection from my mind to my heart

Crashing into one another

In the rush to embrace all of you.

All the particles of us disperse

As night and day disappear

Bursting forth at our touch.

Creation.

This glimmer,

A new universe

Beginning.

New elements we become.

Unprecedented.

Gift

And in this life

To love another’s heart as if not

A burden

Such a gift

Longest Ache

The longest ache.

Tears form in the corner of my eyes when

I remember the magic i felt,

The beauty I witnessed.

And I remember wiping

The red dust from my cheeks

So long ago.

The joy and the wonder a new sight can

bring,

The souls one meets that love a song.

To think

Once

I did not believe.

It was another life now

And then another

And here I am still in wonder.

The longest ache sears through my veins.

The yearning remains.

The ancient beats within my heart reverberate

Through time unseen in synchronization with those who came before

And those yet to come.

Atoms and Cells

There is this burning in my belly,

This aching in my breast.

I struggle to keep my heart contained

Within my chest.

It is just the thought of you,

For you are not even near.

It’s just my atoms

And cells

Retain

The body of you.

Come home.

My heart will not stay still much longer

For

It is not where it belongs.

It’s just

What I must endure

While I am

Imagining

You here.

I am

Aching and breathing.

I am

Aching and dreaming.

Tempo

And you move

So

Naturally

To the tempo of my heart,

When all this time

I believed it

Could not be heard.

You sway so easy.

You sense.

Into one another we see,

Falling so sweetly as we

Immerse ourselves in the rhythm

Of love.

Vibrantly unified,

A light so bright no one can see us.

Barely

She is fine

Until she falls

And then

She crawls.

But no one sees you when

You are beneath

Their feet,

It does not occur to them at all,

Unless they too have

Been

Below

For they know without a doubt,

Recognizing the sound

Of a barely beating heart.

Stories

I have such a story to share,

So many stories within

The story.

Where do I start?

Her heart softly replied,

“Just like you breathe one breath at a time,

As you step one foot in front of the other.

In every moment you pause.

One memory,

One word;

One word at a time.”
