Poem
I could have cried like a bride at a funeral Bled out, dry. I could have but I was already dehydrated...I i think of you I wish someone could turn the moon back on, turn the dimmer back up on the stars. I can't stand these dark black nights void of even one tiny ray of light. I am tired of walking blind through the evenings of my everyday life...I i think of you Yesterday I dreamt the night sky exploded. Bright white pinholes of light appeared . It was as if an invisible hand was holding a huge Fourth of July sparkler against a waterfall of black gold. I watched the oil well blaze. The whole Earth was on fire. The world was burning hot. Without fear I walked through the flames warm, comforted as if I was being held in his light...I i think of you Still in the grip of my sleep suddenly an ocean appears. its water rises and shapes itself like the head of a dragon. Its neck is shaped like a Chinese silk fan. At the same time it is just a huge wave. The kind surfers expect to find in heaven. There is nothing threatening about this apparition. Quite the opposite like the fire it feels as if it is a part of me...I i think of you Do I miss you? Miss you? I died with you! There's a knock at my door but I'm not here. Life's going to have to wait. I'm in hiding. I feel safe inside my walls. In reality my bedroom light is all the outdoors I need. It is my Sun. I hate here without you. So I lie in my bed motionless starring into my nothingness and I... i think of you (Frozen!) As time passes...introspective...I begin to understand. The earth, the air, the fire, the water all the elementals are him. (I begin to thaw!) He is with me even in my ignorance he has never left me. You can take the lord into your heart without a word by accepting his light. (Slightly cold!) A deeper, purer understanding. A trust that rejects the dark no matter how black. I am a part of all, a part of one as you are. A part of me. (Warm!) I open my curtains...watch the dark exit hurried as love rushes in. Firmly in his hold...I I think of you... Once again with you. Fully! We...the power of one...I I think of us. The Beginning! March 25 2015 Armand
