My Strand of Pearls 1

I have waded through the rivers of eternity I have sailed ships on the seas of time For the exquisite pleasure of pressing my lips to your ear So that you could finally hear… The ROARING of my soul I have hitched rides on meteor showers Stolen milliseconds during dreary hours Laid bare bottomed on blackened words Just for that one passing moment when you joyfully heard… My HEART Yell, tell, expel, ProPEL My every breath belongs to you Your eyes…only your eyes, that have no color or hue They are open scepters of fine wine Flowing freely from all that is you I drink every last drop, even the splash upon my lip Anticipating the next happenstance glance Where I can lazily tip and joyfully sip The savory substance of your longing for me Run with me, my love Let us leave behind wind and all constraints of time Flow with me and flick off the frames That prevent you from being mine Feel the rich, bold, paint running ahead Showing us what living and loving has said Experience the gush of your soul Rushing to express what it’s come to know Be still, my beloved, let me know you Let me view you in the purity of light I haven’t eyes to judge Only the perspective of faith in the darkest night What is this? Fear and Shame… That gathers the curtain around your soul Who has left you unopened and unexplored? Who dares to tempt your longing Bind your revealing To know you …no…more….
