Wet still holding the memory of night slowly wakes me My Meraki grows old with you, caring so curious to see Love attends your needs: rich, creamy selfless, we undo Creative in a deep I left a piece of my soul inside of you You are my work & weave, shapes deliberately too slow Feel the dips and curves in you--sits inside you to grow, We are there present in a small offering touching whole, You water me that rises from the roots in words that toll My interior-you leaves an imprint in a soft way of living What do you want to do in your precious gray of giving, Silent as the stars, you invite, me coming back to a home Open up to me in the yawning--I know you like to roam.

I Know You Like to Roam
Wet still holding the memory of night slowly wakes me My Meraki grows old with you, caring so curious to see Love attends your needs: rich, creamy selfless, we undo Creative in a deep I left a piece of my soul inside of you You are my work & weave, shapes deliberately too slow Feel the dips and curves in you--sits inside you to grow, We are there present in a small offering touching whole, You water me that rises from the roots in words that toll My interior-you leaves an imprint in a soft way of living What do you want to do in your precious gray of giving, Silent as the stars, you invite, me coming back to a home Open up to me in the yawning--I know you like to roam.
There is that restless yearning in us that seeks to feel the like in the each of our every morning holding onto that memory of us deep in a broken fountain and with that dawning, a thought that maybe a simple gray will move us closer to real beauty in the light of darkness. Meraki
