Whole Heart

I want you to stay

Yet when you leave there is pleasure

There is memory to sift

Like sparkles in sand

A thousand little gems in my hands

This contrast is a defining quality

Of loving you

To bow my head before its beauty

Only able to weep in awe

And to be broken from my musing

By some out of pocket shit you say

Just as your face edged in sunlight

Is becoming the face of myth

Of archetype of timelessness 

The Lover

As you describe your dreams

And I am traveling on astral planes

Of knowing you

Knowing me as you

You land me back on earth

In a chariot of giggles

Two silly little creatures curled

On the damp back steps 

In the melting winter sun

Just as peaceful and sacred 

As a bed in candlelight

Everywhere I lie with you 

Is a garden

I have become a mossy slope

A healing ground

Stretch out on me my love

Soak me in through your clothes

Your skin

Let me seed in you and flower

As joy in your heart

Song on your tongue

The song of all we had to let go

On the hero’s journey home
