Inside the Longing

Bow Lake, the Rockies, Summer 2018

Here

In the Longing

Just Here

In the Longing for YOU

I feel

And look

Warm

Deep inside

Raw

Quiet

Here

Inside

In the Longing

It hurts

Feels sad

Don't leave me

The Longing says

Here

Just Here

Inside

Feel

And look 

I'm scared

What is there

In the Longing?

'Cos

I'm Here

YOU are there!

That's why I long for YOU

It hurts!

But...

What if YOU

Are the Longing?

YOU

Here

Inside

Quiet

Raw

Real

Everything YOU long for you've already found, my Love

Says the Longing

I dare to feel

I dare to look

YOU offer me your hand

I see

 A mirror

A watery reflection

The hand reaches out 

Touches 

The Rawness

Then

Words disintegrate

Sink to the bottom of the lake

Too heavy they are

And I float in the Silvery Soothingness

Feeling

Looking

Just

 

 Here

 

 

 

 Inside the Longing
