Romance

I love you
I love you
I am hapless and hopeless
And it's no use
I love you now and forever
And it's no use

Time has frozen on the wings of the butterfly
The world is succumbing jelly under my dauntless feet
I'm sinking in its sweetness my dearest
I have fallen in love
For the last time.

I'm the hummingbird's flight arrested
I'm loving you in slow motion
For eternity
Give or take an aeon
Eternity's estate is bereft of the
Property of my heart.
For who can delineate Zion?

My love is burnt blue ashes
Of my heartstrings
Still trembling to the touch of your lyre
It sings in the mystical stillness
Cascading through universal gyre.

Hear in my silenced voice strange sonic song
Barely above or below a whisper
The wind has swallowed my tomorrows
And it has swapped all my yesterdays
Well worth the exchange
My friend of friends
For I'm living
Now
In you.

I'm living a life time
In you
And I'm forever forever in
Now
Flickering like candle in the fall wind
Rising
Falling
Never dying
somehow.

This very moment I think
Contained in  it
Entire existence blinks
And
The universe
In a nutshell squirreled away
in gentle prescience winks.

Perhaps I'm living
All my ordained lives up
Perhaps I'm giving
all my imperfect lives up
Just to be able to
Love you
Flawlessly
This way.

My beautiful beautiful love
Warm as Eiderdown
And soft as moss
Smaller than perspective
And vaster than thought
Lovingly I  surrender
To your sweet embrace.
Surrender my story
To an Amazing Grace.

Muchos Gracias
The universe introduces
Us,
and we're two sides
Of the same
Timeless face..
Love is my last salute and song
Before dissolution
In namelessness.
