it consumes my entire being, a galaxy unto itself, with scorching stars and pirouetting planets...
my love
for you,
spills out,
in an endless, frenzied waterfall,
flowing in cascades
of silky sage strands
that catch the delicate, drifting
shards of sunlight
that sprinkle like fresh snow.
it consumes
my entire being,
a galaxy unto itself,
with scorching stars
and pirouetting planets
aimlessly adorning
its endless expanse.
it washes
everything away,
drowns my writhing demons,
wipes my slate clean,
until i am nothing but
abounding
peace.
