I cross milky-smooth plains under twin moons,
Soft and welcoming
They beckon to me
My tongue dances and dives, dips and swirls,
Thirsty and wanting
She sates me
I feel roses wrap around me, tender and strong,
Pulling me down
They guide me…
They guide me to a place I wanted without thought
A place I needed without hunger
A place I knew, without knowing
I drink, sweet and deep,
These waters I have always known,
This nectar I have only just found
Alexander’s River, De Leon’s Fount,
From which I have lapped, always,
Thirsty for you, without understanding
This is life
This is youth
This is Heaven
In these little deaths, there is eternity, holding the daemons at bay

We are young,
Rush
Wandering the face of the Earth,
Wondering what our dreams might be worth,
Learning that we’re only immortal
For a limited time
Wonderful! I love it. 🖤
