Things I'll Never Get to Say.

May our Love be as vast as the ocean,

May we expand exponentially 

out past

right and wrong

beyond what he did, what she did

and all those tired

conversations

May our Hearts remember what drew us to

Love, here

in the first place

You are

Friend

Lover

Mirror, other

Shadow illuminator

and yes, 

my Love, we 

have seen each other shine~

and our hearts, warmed

by that sweet glow

and now, dear One,

what is left, 

in our broken-open hands?

my Love for you

the possibility of maybe something bigger being True

maybe,

you and I have done the best we can

and maybe

we are Teachers for each other

we dared to Love

with such passion and such fury

in such a gloriously short 

Life, as this

You are

Lion Man,

Otter Boy,

Gypsy Child,

you are so many things that I will never know

May our Compassion

be as vast as the ocean

May we expand exponentially

out past

right and wrong

beyond what he did, what she did

and all those tired

conversations,

May our Hearts remember what drew us to

Love, here

in the first place.

to sleep, perchance to dream

It is late now, as I write this.
And it has been a full day. I could crawl into bed and pass out pretty quickly, I am sure....but there is still so much moving in my mind and my heart.

Attempting to do some honest looking at myself and with support, continuing to dig deeper. To explore and excavate that which has so long laid buried. 

And it's awful, actually sometimes, in that supremely uncomfortable way- walking up to my own edges and leaning into them, despite my own protesting.  And... it's helping me to heal and evolve.

Tonight I sit with gentleness, invite it's presence in.  Into my heart and into my relation with myself.  Especially around the themes and hurts I have been working with.  Especially into those places in which I give myself a really hard time.

Growth is a process.  Life is a process.

And sleep is a process in which my body refreshes, rejuvenates, and heals itself...so actually, on second thought...methinks sleep is in order, immediately!

Love to all who lay dreaming now~
