Often, as I lie awake
Silent in the stillness of night
I think of you
And I ponder how
Through the gift of reacquaintance
Our lives entwined and unravelled
Priorities widened and waned
Worlds synced and separated
My mind revisits
Every late night, spent close in connection
Every challenge confronted
Every emotion uncovered
Every depth of feeling shared
And now, here lies a superficial shroud
In darkness and depression
And an emptiness echoes between
The souls of strangers

So silky and thick and soothing and tempting..
You lure me in with your visual peace and colourful warmth.
Caressing my eyes and my skin.
Cradling my soul, while encouraging my mind to be still;
or to wander..
Complementing both, and either feels good.
You have no expectations, and space for me always.
You're gentle but firm, and for me,
you hold infinite freedom.
You have your dangers and yet you feel so safe..
I know you'll always look after me.
The way you fill me.
The way you inspire me.
The way you empower me..
Isn't this what love is?
I know you love me, Dark.
And I love you.

Close the door on this dastardly, dervish,
Distracted world and draw near with full hearts,
Centering mindfulness, alive to now,
And the promptings of the Spirit of God.
You have an appointment: reacquaintance
With the core from whence you spring, fountainhead
Flowing through every motion, life force
Fulfillment of all the potential You!
Quiet! Waiting! Never rush the moment!
Wait for that inner light, shining dimly
To start, steadily streaming to Glory’s
Intensity, and that still, small voice where
God asks, “What are you doing here, my Love?”
If you don’t know how to reply, You’re Right!
