Michael's Vows
I first met you in the
place I
go between
sleep and
awake.
I was in a
timeless land
waiting
for to my dream to break.
Instead,
you appeared as a goddess!
Smiling,
exuding feminine energy,
and just
as gorgeous just as today!
Alone
with you, with hopeful
thoughts
and open heart,
I
dreamily waited and surrendered
to your
as yet unknowing state.
Softly,
your feminine spirit
silently
surrounded me,
and your
presence filled my masculine void
with the
glow of your waif-like soul.
Reclining,
care-freely I smile,
not
knowing the where,
how high,
nor the what,
and
certainly not the why of us...
In my
twilight, we embrace,
and I let
go of my hard heart and pain.
Today, I
feel the lightness of our grace!
Our
bright spirits and our perfection,
compliments
yours and mine,
Yin and
Yang joining together
in the soft
light of the sublime.
At first,
I'm confused...
But, I
yield to your femininity,
yet, I
retain my masculinity.
Intently,
we combine without enmity...
I know
your sweetness
and the
where that I'm at...
And, purposely,
we meld and merge carefully,
in our
own two ways...
Loving
ourSelves,
no longer
knowing our self-ish selves,
we
remember not of our old caring…
But, will
we ever know the why our new sharing?
Tenderness,
and softness,
and
strength, and calm...
Easily, uneasy
souls join together gracefully,
almost as
if one.
But...
No one
knows why it must be so…
Astrologers
say that Scorpio’s and Gemini’s
fight and
they yell, like demon spawn,
straight from
the depth's of hell…
Like
boiling blood of Water and Air
that they
say just refuses to gel...
Is this
truly so?
Does it
have to be for us?
I laugh
at astrologer’s fearful
prognostication
for you and me…
Tonight,
with the insane moon’s glow,
Our music
flows with innocence and delight…
Challenging
each in great ways
with Our
respective rites...
With your
beauty and endless energy,
and my
innate mystical synergy,
our
hearts open to the boundless possibilities.
And from
now on, we’ll strive to
negate
each other’s opposite qualities.
Julia, what
I love about you is that
you
accept my darkness and my light,
And I
accept yours with the greatest of delight.
What I’ve
spoke of today is how we are to me.
But,
flowery promises seldom ever come to be.
So, my
vows are but three...
I will
always love you for all eternal time.
I vow I
will give you the best I’ve got
at that
place, moment and time.
But, most importantly,
I do promise you this:
You’ll never be bored.
