Heart Runner

Heart Runner My heart is a long distance runner... running uphill. Inhaling now, exhaling the future. Before I met her, I was in a coma. She's waking me up... Embryo stirring, stretching, reaching to grasp the unknown. Forcefully being pushed down the depression channel~ while panting, heart throbbing against the wall of my soul. Inhaling now, exhaling the future. Flying now, with effortless movement.. Feet have wings, Heart racing uphill. Inhaling now, exhaling the future. Waiting to quench my thirst, Hear her sigh, in the present moment... See how her face appears.. Touch my lips against her cheek... Breathe within her private realm. Her love is that cool drink of pure water... waiting for me at the end of the race, as we embrace the present moment, forget all the hills we had to climb, and leisurely stroll off into the future.
