The sun warmed my face today. The vapory white arms of the breeze reached out from their carefree winding and invited me to embrace. Scents of the earth caressed my nostrils and took me to fond places of my childhood memories. I looked around at the beauty of nature, basking in the total satisfaction of life. I thought to myself, perfection in its truest form is free for the taking. Just open your eyes and mind, and glean an abundance of the gift we forget we were even given. Unexpected everyday it is lain at our feet, and yet there are moments like these when it comes as a complete surprise. As wonderful as this life is though, as magnificent are the rare beauties we forget to see, I would trade them all. Yes, I would forfeit a thousands days allotted to me in this span I call my life. Forfeit the suns rays warm and inviting, forfeit the view of a glittering starry night, forfeit it all, for just one night with you. I would turn my back on the eternal enchantment of natures wonders, close my eyes to the beckoning hills of Heather, ignore the fields of Daises as they dance in the breeze, just for one of your kisses. For how could they ever strum the strings of my heart the way your smile does? How could the most fragrant of flowers compete with the scent of the warm curve of your neck? I would delay entering into the gates of the Heavenly city to spend a night with you locked in a 12x14 motel room with smoke so thick it seems to hang on the air, eating nuked food, drinking no name sodas, listening to you play your guitar. Feasting as you spread a banquet of your thoughts and feelings before me. You, just you. You with your multi faceted deeply intense perception and unexplainable ability to relate to everything around you, is more of wonderment to me than the orbiting of the planets, or the shifting courses of the wind. Beside you they seem to pale. They are mundane and routine, so expected, but you, you are that once hidden mystery that so tauntingly shimmered just out of my minds grasp. You are that cleansing breath of fresh air so craved on a hot muggy southern night. The gift that is you, makes me want to give, give to all unreservedly, holding nothing back, til giving I have lost myself. You make me want to be a better person, to transcend my fleshly barriers of self indulgence and ascend into a greater plane of self sacrifice. Knowing you has allowed me to see. I see so many things that once escaped my narrow vision. I see the beauty and poetry of things so simple. The enchantment of lounging on the couch with a pillow and comforter, skin warm and inviting. Sweetly flavored places to discover, tasting til moans fill the air. Sharing a moment of ecstacy where souls meet and entwine, til it is impossible to know where one begins and the other ends. You touch me so deeply that I can't tell where this sweet ache is emunating from. When I am in your arms I am at peace and know the true meaning of contentment.  Post a comment in response: |
