hand to hand, heart to heart

 

“I come from nothing. I am nothing. I return to nothing.”

-St.

Ignatius Loyola

 

you come from the beloved,

you are the beloved,

you return to the beloved

 

my beloved and i have been wandering

wandering for a lonesome time and in places

distant and remote from each other, distant

where paths do not cross,

hands do not touch,

eyes do not speak

 

i come from the beloved,

i am the beloved,

i return to the beloved

 

the beloved and i have been wandering

searching for each other on continents unique

carrying hidden deep within our sacred hearts

a secret lost in our directionless meanderings

buried in the barren sands of a deluded belief

the hope that there was such a one, a beloved

to whom we could expose this tender, pink flesh

 

we come from the beloved,

we are the beloved,

we return to the beloved

 

the beloved and i wander remote no more

we search not for each other on the continents

the treasure hidden in our hearts is hidden not

the bootless pilgrimage is ended as it began

exposing the sweet heresy of juvenile belief

the hope of love in not false hope, the beloved

is revealed in a holy rose, fragrant and damp

 

i return to the beloved,

i am the beloved

i come from the beloved

 

 

my beloved and i rest as one in the aurasphere

our sentence of wandering having been served

each held within the other in blissful interbeing

where all waters meet

hand in hand, lips to lips

eyes to eyes, heart to heart

 

oh, beloved reader, i am the beloved’s poet

and i sing to tell you as she tells me i must sing

as for us, when the fruit is ripe your time will come

 

you come from the beloved,

you are the beloved,

you return to the beloved

 

You are your beloved and your beloved is You.
