To Be Embraced Like That

Do you know what it is like to be held
Close, and tender
An all encompassing embrace?

The kind where your hearts align
And suddenly you feel an incredible expanse
As though you feel the whole Universe between you two
Emanating out...

The kind which surrounds you with warmth
And pours it within
Reaching a deeper dimension
Where it doesn't stay limited to a physical feeling

The kind where you're so connected your Souls touch
To exist untouched by anything else
In a consortium of joy
Love, and exalted harmony.

Where you actually feel what it is to lose yourself in the moment
In that feeling
In the sheer breadth of that space in time
Experience the moment live and breathe with you
And gently sigh with the weight of the shared calm you both hold.

To be embraced like that

Clasped,

To live like that, in a compound moment -

I think that's what we need.

Shades of Grey

Can we be shades of grey
I want to live in your spectrum
Rejoice in the sunlight of your smile
And to wipe away your frown
When you're trapped in anger
Can I swim in your peace
And we can divide the melancholy bits
Can we live it all
Without having to choose
Can we be simple and complex
Can we be shades of grey?

Would you let me in
When you're feigning bravery
And let me shoulder some of your pain
You don't have to do this alone
Let yourself fall
And allow me to gather your fragile fragments
I'll piece you back together
With my love and strength as the glue.
And I'll be your banister as long as you need one
No matter how steep your life's stairs are
And don't be a fool
You need someone to hold on to
Just don't fight it
And hold on to me
I will see you through

Let us quarrel
Argue till we're spent.
Go ahead
Cut me with your words
Let it out
Let me be your release
It's OK
I'll get back up again

Grant me audience to your laughter
I will sync my smile with yours
I will fuel your amusement
And afford you further reason to chuckle.
And the sun may set
And rise beyond the morning
But we will be constant
In mirth
I guarantee it

Come
I have happiness to spare
Let us bask in the breadth of this joy
And let it envelop us
Till we don't know where I end and you begin.
We can fly
On this magic carpet of bliss
Such a things exists
And I will take you there

And when you're cold
And weak
And falling out of strength
Unlock the door
I will surround you with my care
And heal you back to stability.
There is no disease
That my love can't cure
And I will lay me down
So that you can stand back up

When you crave stillness
I will halt
When you desire solitude
I will disappear
I understand space and silence
And how it will replenish you
I will give you what you want
Even if I can't give it to you

If I feel you, I feel it all
It can't be just the merriment
Or the misery alone
And I don't want to choose
To only love you
Or not to love you at all.

Can we not be black and white?
Can we be shades of grey?

Just Let Me...

Let me sink into you arms

Feel your warmth

Your tenderness

Your quiet passion

Seeping from your heart

And wrap me in your universe

For this lifetime

For this moment.

Let me breathe you in

Swim in your essence

And transcend the physical

To be intertwined

With your love

To be pulled into your gravity

And remain magneted to you

Fused at the heart.

Let me feel no distance

Nor emotion

Nor thought

Just let me be suspended in your arms

And feel the warmth of your skin build

Your heartbeat melt with mine

And the world around us

Whisper itself out of sight.

Lets just float in this moment

Where time holds its breath

And all that matters is

You and me.

Let me blend with your touch

And witness the lush, gentle softness of your affection

Just let me be close to you

Where space runs out

Where we can close our eyes

And all that's left is us

And Now.

Let me experience this Forever

Here

Enveloped in your arms

Hidden in your caress

Shining through each breath

Revealed by your love.

Let me be close to you

Feel your rich intensity

And live this dream.

Let me breathe you in

Deep and slow

And be drenched in your care.

Just let me sink into your arms

Be loved by you

And love you

The way it was meant to be.

Your Love

Please nourish me with your Love
As does water to stone in a waterfall
Washing over it
Soaking into it
Breathing its presence
Into the deepest core of this rock
And allowing it to transform
Into a tender, soft piece of affection
To finally assimilate into the flow of your Love
And furnish my heart
To the comfort of your care.

Hold me close
Wrap me in your arms
As does the resonant sunshine
Around the trees and the rivers
Encompassing the Earth
In the bounty of its Love
Throwing out the beauty of Life
To the elements
Allowing the elements
To melt away with the beams
And unite with this rich source of Love.

Breathe me into your affection
With each caress to my skin
As does a wisp of a breeze
That glides across the surface of a lake
Shining out the quietest ripples
That carry the softest kiss
Like a whisper in the wind
Connecting two Spirits
To merge like the harmony of Day and Night
United by each breath
Into the peace of your Love.

Please surround me in your care
Into the Silence that dwells in this haven
Where the embrace of your light
Is a shelter and a home
Where affection sprouts up
Through the spring of this nourishment
Crowning each moment in tranquility
And energy of this force
Deemed so powerful simply in its existence
Never to be created nor demolished
Complete and pure, as your Love.

I Do Still Love You

You cast a spell on my heart
And showed me a love indescribable
You brought to light a tenderness within
I was never aware existed

You allowed me to dream of a love for you and I
That is as improbable as it is true
Because, we were always worlds apart
In almost every way imaginable

But I do still love you
In only the purest of ways
And hold a prayer in my heart
For the elements to watch over you -

Let the rain shower you with glory
And drench you in its joy
Touch you with each drop, and spread
The bliss of life within you.

Let the sun shine down in bundles
And surround you in its peace
Fill your being with warmth and calm
And protect you like a shield.

Let the winds carry you on their wings
And fly you far beyond your dreams
Breathe the love of the world to you
And always lift you in times of need.

Let the earth never forsake you
And catch you if you should fall
And always hold you close to its heart
And be your unwavering support.

Your life will have no place for doubt
For you are special, as you are loved
Protected like a child from all evil
You will forever prosper, undefeated.

Call upon your heart within
It will always glow with my love
You will never feel alone with this force
And it will abolish all your fears

You will always glisten from your soul
I'll see your light from unfathomable distances
You may be distant, as distant as can be
But I'll always be tuned in, should you call

You may not evoke me to your mind
But I will constantly be praying for you
Because I do still love you
And I will for all eternity.

Why...

Both of them felt it
Like they were very deeply connected
Its as if his heart pumped the blood in hers with every beat.
She knew he cared
He knew she cared
But they never connected on a conscious level

She was mesmerised by him
His very Soul seemed to shine through
He was aware that she saw it
But he couldnt do anything about it
And it made him feel insecure
Because nobody had ever noticed it before
He thought it wasnt that significant
But she saw it
And she thought it was beautiful.
Golden, she thought the color to be.
Sparkling golden.
Like sunshine
In the air
It held the colors of the rainbow within it
It left her breathless for a moment
Entranced...

She wondered if he had noticed her
Most of the time she felt insignificant
But if he looked at her
And if he smiled
Just the acknowledgement felt special
She felt special.
She felt loved in a very odd way
Like she knew it, but didnt understand it
At least, not in her heart or mind.
Her Soul knew why she felt that way
But wouldnt let her know
She just felt it was playing tricks on her
Because she didnt know why she was connected to him
Why she felt a connection but didnt know of it
Why she felt it, but couldnt feel it at the same time...
She wished someone would tell her
Or that she could find out why...

She cared for him
Just as he cared for her
In a way neither of them could comprehend
And that scared her slightly
She's also scared that he knows it
Still, she derives comfort that he knows it

What they share is special
Something so beautiful, she wondered
How either of them lived without it for as long as they did
But it's entirety will always remain a mystery
And perhaps in Time, understanding will develop
But until then, they shall continue
With the glances
And the smiles
And all the hidden meanings
And their individual interpretations of such...

She never really chose him
And he never really chose her
Yet they touched each either
On a level only they could access
She feels special
She feels grateful
It happened
But she doesnt know why...
