The Eternal Now

My heart, my soul, my own true love

Endurer of ten thousand tortures

and yet, still,

you search me out

though I am as a leaf caught in flame

compared to You

I am born

and die

in the moment that

you blink your eyes

and the fact that even so,

I hear your heart

crying for my own

across all of space and time

“My Empress,

My Bride,

My Goddess . . .
come home to Me again!”

As my spirit cries for Yours . . .

Against all odds.

Against all rules

“We are Taboo”

you’ve told me more than once

“in every place we’ve ever lived.

But never will I let you go!

And always will you be protected -

for you are my hearts’ song!

You are the reason for my waking,

for my sleeping,

for my delight,

and for my mourning.

Without You,

Beloved One,

I cease to Exist . . .

so,

Taboo or not,

they all must rejoice

when I find you again.

For only in my joy in You

do any of them Live.”

Oh my Treasured One!

I am a burning leaf on the wind . . .

and yet . . . your kisses . . .
