FALLING

I Imagine us high,

Ethereally,

Knowing the light,

Of each other,

Blindly,

Feeling the sum of us,

Falling,

Diving upward,

Peacefully,

Forever,

 

I sense your freefall,

With me,

My heart, quickened,

Calmly,

The world coming,

Closer,

But slipping further away,

As we release,

Ourselves,

To our forever,

Made one,

Ever bound,

By this freedom,

 

Resolute in oneness,

Beholden to,

Blended imperfections,

Made flawless,

In a faultless sky,

That caresses away,

All but carnal mindfulness,

Of flesh,

Amorous wishes uncovered,

Windswept,

Together,

But one soul to share,

Between us,

 

I fall blissfully,

Alongside and within,

You,

Purposefully at peace,

One,

Whispered together,

By the wind,

And we’ve become,

This certain thing,

That drifts,

Effortlessly,

So, this is love.
