Eden, I Land

I knew that am empty Am hollow and through the harrowing Sojourn to identify myself, to complete the missing piece I had to explore, to swim oceans and cruise dilapidated Sahara Just to ensure that I reach you I kowtow, not at evanescing of my pride But doing so gives me ride, sweeping me to the long coveted land of wonders For many years I have searched, for decades I have excavated The obscurity and voices of confusion long ignored Coz inherently I knew how beautiful you are The grace that embodies you Elegance that you’re clothed in And how you love roses at the setting sun I saw myself gape at your sight, so heavenly, so angelic Each of your members stood in readiness, dripping for the Long awaited master The ripples that ran through me, the joy that sprang deep within As your fingers reached for my arm, expertly guiding me Along the contours proficiently curved Through the smooth pristine valley reserved Unto the penultimate land of milk and honey Let your sweet voice be my lullaby every night Let my shoulder pillow your sorrows and rid fright Let your magical touch caress my mind to stillness To wipe all that I have encountered unto our fruitfulness Let you, be me, be usness Coz our union is magic inexplicable With pristine tone of your skin incorruptible In you, and you alone Do I wonder in awe, at the works of god so marvelous Flawless, That I open my gates of love to you To access bales upon bales Of raw love unopened, untouched Travel through my mind then Listen to my heart’s rhythm Caress through my thoughts And always tell me, I love you as you do!
