I thirst for you
you who are more than life itself
clothed only in the beauty of mystery
lying naked only to those who you
allow to enter into your presence
yes i thirst for you &
every night i dream of how
only your essence can quench
this longing that i have to
travel beyond constellations
on sun rays that blaze horizons
so that this present darkness
can feel what light is really like
when it touches skin &
causes lotus petals to emerge
beneath the murky waters
that conceals its inner grandeur
&
i thirst for you
like an infant does its mother's milk
after awakening from sleep
because I know that only you
can nourish me with your breath
that your breath into my
consciousness
which inspires me to speak in ancient
native tongues that I have never
before known
so that i can communicate with you
&
listen to your voice in my ear &
hear the secrets of becoming one
with you so that i can empty
my entire being inside of you
until you completely fill me with
your love &
this is why i thrist for you
like lions panting for the stream
after the hunt to appease its hunger
&
lust to keep living &
not die so that the elements
can have its way with the flesh given
to experience the four seasons of
time
which is but a wink in light of
eternity
only found in you &
with you only i desire to spend
my afterlife so that nothing
will ever come between us again
like when i first left your side
only to later realize that my life
only makes sense when I'm with you
&
you have satisfied me with only
what you are able to provide
for it is your waters
that I desire to quench my thrist
only...
