Poem Title:
Poem
The journey began shortly after you fell asleep last night Your gentle breathing guiding me into your very being One might think I would find darkness but instead I found light As if you had been expecting my arrival and knew my true meaning I knew not which direction to travel but did follow the beat of your heart Like a giant river flowing the sound grew louder as I traveled ever inward Directing my every move as if calling to me like a mystical matriarch Further and further I traveled my progress never hindered Suddenly, I became entangled in your dreams and felt I might be lost this night But the dreams were so beautiful that I soon forgot my fear You dreamed of angels and flowers and other things so natural and bright I was swept away in a magnificent rush of grandeur my destiny unclear I feared you might awake and feel my presence and become alarmed But you quietly slept on and no movement did I sense My passage through your being was never intended to do harm My need to discover your inner secrets driven by yearnings so intense The thunderous beats of your heart grew ever louder as I sensed the journey's end Your breathing accelerated as if you were suddenly gasping for air I gathered all my strength as ever deeper I did descend Suddenly your body gave welcome to my presence as utter ecstasy we did share The mornings light found me lying once again at your side You woke as you had done so many mornings in the past You looked at me and smiled and then spoke with a gentle sigh Saying simply "We should meet like that more often my love ...even though you did trespass"
