Esoteric Lover

7 March 2016

 

Yesterday

Traces confused me

Centipedes

Crawling slow

Winding through the arctic show

Of shimmering sheen

 

You took me

Into wilderness

Skies splitting

Waking dream

We are more than what we seem

Our hands tools of light

 

Energy

Sheer waves to harness

Within limbs

Through the Heart

Will done before we depart

Into the ninth realm

 

Star at helm

Invoking weather

Son of sun

Moon daughter

Ten steps to reach the altar

Promise of union

 

She robes me

Confusion of frames

I desist

She insists

Equal slabs of red and blue

Now we are betrothed

 

Rehearsal

Mirrored images

Mere backdrop

Mistaken

A shade for original

Vows wrongly taken

 

 

I saw you

Within a glass frame

You harboured

Parts of me

Dedication of the Heart

Faith of Oversoul

 

Destiny

Spun out of control

Wove stories

With light thread

Three ladies pray for the dead

As they weave all life

 

With them too

I conversed open

In shadows

Where they walked

Wyrd, Veroandi and Skuld

Weaving their blue webs

 

There are truths

Mingled with substance

Of deceit

Two-way test

Where your faith and mine are pressed

Alien outcomes

 

Morning star

King of all kingdoms

Unity

Within light

Two wrongs do not make a right

Following heartpath

 

Your candle

It ignites fires

Within realms

Of dreamtime

In between blue Space and Time

Where atoms reverse

 

 

We converse

Of dungeons and dragons’ lair

Of waters

Imploding

Of Humans with gills for air

Until waves recede

 

Second stage

Metamorphosis

Eye pleases

Mind teases

We retrieve the wings once lost

Glorious our flight

 

Into light

Winged blue white sparrow

I fly high

Into Time

Code Eternity in rhyme

Your gift of the word

 

The nectar

It dripped so slowly

Into throat

Into mind

They said the heatwaves could blind

As they scorched senses

 

Blue imprint

Of souls’ promises

I bear them

Heart tattoos

They remind me how to choose

From dreams and spirits

 

Lessons learnt

Rephrase intentions

I now know

Truly see

All begins and ends with you
