I’m covered in a blanket of darkness
as the wind caresses my skin,
and opens me up again

wide, as the sky is deep, I pause
and breathe all of life in…

closing my eyes, I try to remember

why
and where we last met, as love arises
within

towards
the thinness, atmospheric tension, begins…

a tranquility, and calmness beneath the sea, stirs,
and a tremble in the earth shakes
the reverie combined,
mirth

set aside for the dawn,
as love blossoms over the sun…
