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.

Determination

To breathe, and to be free
Unburdened by the pressures of worry
To arrest the clout
That may have stored itself
In barnacles of uncertainty
And dejection,
To elate
The Spirit and the senses
So they may relish the exhilaration
Of being born
In this here and now,
To strangle fear
In its tracks
And reject rejection
No more submission to abuse
Inflicted or derived
Rebel against their currents
And stretch into a new subsistence
Laser sharp strength
Resilient and focused
To conquer
And sublimate
To rely, unwithholding -
On Courage, unsuppressed
On Faith, concentrated
On Breath, unfiltered
To never submit
To a lesser force
Or external force
To weakness
Or impatience
But to soldier on
Driven by resolve
By passion
Bordering on obsession
To wash out superstition
Desperation
Accusations
And so-called warnings
Fed by ignorant minds
And lead on
Further on that path
Where your strength fires you on.
You don't give up
Because it is everything that you succeed
Imperative.
Your Soul will offer
And accept
Nothing less.
When this Light is guiding you
You will reach that summit
That destination of brilliance
Because this determination
Composed from such a source
Will deliver no less.
