You awaken in me
Erotic energy
That stems from the soul
I invite it
To flow through me
Permeate me
From the inside
Spreading warming filling
This is what
I have been waiting for
This is
What I have been
Waiting for
No physical act
Could reach this level
At this time
I crave
I crave
But the intensity of
That physical desire
Stems not from you
Not from this
But from the emptiness
And loneliness
Of years gone by
So I sit quietly
In peace and wholeness
Watching the snow fall
Softening everything
Everything
Grateful that the untrue Fire
Has been quelled
By forcing things to
Slow Down
And I drink in What Is
And dance with it
Awake again
Alive again
And Grateful
