I wish I could show you,
When you are lonely or in darkness,
The Astonishing Light
Of your own being!
— Hafiz.

The stark realization that things are not what they appear to be. I am learning and moving through the same pattern at a faster pace. Five years ago, it took 365 days to see beyond the luscious light spreading through the window. Where I was once dazzled and stopped to warm my face and feet, I now tread softly at the edges where beams brush the shadow.

I eclipsed in a mere 48 hours—two days for something to blossom, breathe and become undone.

I long to be filled by beauty.

I want to be held and touched and tasted.

I want to spread myself like a swan’s wing in the water.

ouvrir le coeur
: open your heart. 

It’s wonderful for the body to witness decomposition. I cannot unsee what has been done. To negate the sensation of finality is a lie. I say I love you. I believe in each word. I would not utter symbols if they were not embodied.

The light moves through, some of it is from you, and some was already inside of me.

I needed you to spark arousal.
