watched
and weathered
storms and terror
night and vicious day
day and and the torture of night
all without you.
i've waited lifetimes
watched for eons
as stars formed above
rose
shined
brought forth life
and then died
in a penetrating explosion
reaching through time and space
all the while i've waited
for you.
the earth spins
mountains collapse
fires, floods, earthquakes
ravage the pristine earth
robbing us of our treasures
of each other.
families torn apart by disaster
either nature or war
the folly of man
how many have been born and died
how many lifetimes have passed before our eyes
since i've seen you?
since i've felt you?
since i've been one with you?
let me become one with you.
bring to me the torture in your soul
the lifetimes you've endured while you've waited
searching
for relief from this life
from the terrorists of nighttime
empty it all at the entrance to my chamber
dive into me
and emerge baptized
renewed.
see in me the gods and goddesses
the power of soul
the movement of the divine
that i see in you
feel it in my every breath
let every touch bring life
let every sigh erase death
let every kiss empower
embolden
emblazen
encircle
then arise and greet the new you
imbued and injected with your own power
unleashed.
as you fill
so am i filled
as you feed
so am i fed
as you live
so am i alive
when you arrive
the storms shall clear
sins are pardoned
death no longer contains us
but liberates us
through you, through me
we find that life,
that love,
that the overwhelming power of the pounding penetration
permeates to the primordial plane
the perspicacity of our union...
and we are forever changed.
no longer do i wait.
i am.
