May I find ways
of using words in such a manner
that might begin to portrayhow I am filled by the depths
of what I believe we share:
space, silence, timelessness.

Three of the heavier weights
in the universe. And here I am
burning for you with such intensity,

there is a glow that begins to radiate
within me. May what we share be
some of the most nurturing

characteristics of the soul that lighten,
heal, and re-energize: the opening
heart, forgiveness, the receiving heart.
