Where did you come from, my love...
Arriving as you did in an explosion of strident sound
Amidst the elemental tempest that raged
Around us?
Just as I was about to get lifted away:
Ripped asunder by these vast inner storms -
Turmoil surrounding and blackening my heart,
Emotions of despair intruding on my sanity...
Your being appeared just in time to save me.
Oh, you were so full of life and joy!
Laughing in a playful manner so becoming;
Your infectious soul imposing upon my own,
Stamping its authority and sprinkling light
On my opaque, impenetrable darkness!
This aura of brightness envelops you,
And indeed all those whom you touch;
Your fingertips exude such sensuality
And gentle caress, tantalising -
Like motes of energy striking and coalescing.
I gaze into your pools of deep sincerity,
Locked and fallen into their mysterious depths:
Right there and then I feel a warm glow
Spreading through me and energizing me -
I am transfixed on your form and spirit.
My wish then transcends all others,
Destroying all the eddies of unquiet and despair,
Serenely filling my being in newfound glory:
Quite simply, I want to become one
With the spirit so amazing before me.
Where did you come from, my love...
Arriving as you did, as an angel sent to me
In my time of need and sorrow?
Amidst all this violent energy
That curses and scoffs at us?
The one spirit.
It comes for us all.
When we need it the most.
